Flavor Ratios of Astrophysical Neutrinos: Implications for Precision Measurements
Sandip Pakvasa, Werner Rodejohann, Thomas J. Weiler
We discuss flavor-mixing probabilities and flavor ratios of high energy astrophysical neutrinos. In the first part of this paper, we expand the neutrino flavor-fluxes in terms of t…
TriMinimal Parametrization of the Neutrino Mixing Matrix
Sandip Pakvasa, Werner Rodejohann, Thomas J. Weiler
Current experimental data on neutrino mixing are very well described by TriBiMaximal mixing. Accordingly, any phenomenological parametrization of the MNSP matrix must build upon Tr…
Neutrino time travel
James Dent, Heinrich Päs, Sandip Pakvasa +1
We discuss causality properties of extra-dimensional theories allowing for effectively superluminal bulk shortcuts. Such shortcuts for sterile neutrinos have been discussed as a so…
Neutrino flavor ratios as diagnostic of solar WIMP annihilation
Ralf Lehnert, Thomas J. Weiler
We consider the neutrino (and antineutrino) flavors arriving at Earth for neutrinos produced in the annihilation of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) in the Sun's core.…
Relic Neutrinos, Z-Bursts, and Cosmic Rays above 10^{20} eV
Thomas J. Weiler
The observation of cosmic--ray events above the Greisen-Kuzmin-Zatsepin (GZK) cutoff of eV challenges orthodox modeling. We discuss a possible solution which…
Measuring Charm and Bottom Quark Masses
Thomas J. Weiler, K. Ghafoori--Tabrizi
The meaning and the extraction of heavy quark masses are discussed. A simple production model is presented which incorporates the running of the heavy quark mass into perturbative…
