CERN efforts for future Neutrino Programs

22.11.2017 11:15 – 12:15

Neutrino oscillation is a key phenomenon for future discoveries in particle physics.
Discovery of the CP violation in the leptonic sector, determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy, precision measurements of the mixing parameters, determination of the existence of a hidden neutrino sector are few of the measurements involving neutrino oscillations. Long and short baseline neutrino oscillation experiments are high-priority large-scale activities worldwide: US, Japan and Europe are developing a full program for the next decades where neutrino research is a fundamental component.
At CERN, the Neutrino Platform program coherently fosters the neutrino community. This program is the CERN’s undertaking to contribute to the fundamental research in neutrino physics, as recommended by the 2013 European Strategy for Particle Physics. It includes the provision of a facility at CERN to allow the global community of neutrino experts to develop and prototype the next generation of neutrino detectors. The CERN Neutrino Platform is CERN’s main contribution to a globally coordinated programme of neutrino research.
