3ν framework: Introduction
![Page 4: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

At NuFact’05, a more refined summary is appropriate (±2σ):
Consensus on conventions and notation desirable
Second significant digit may be relevant in some contexts,e.g., prospective studies of future precision experiments
(and is also necessary for book-keeping progress in estimates)
In such cases, mass-mixing parameters must be precisely defined

3ν framework: Notation
![Page 8: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Mixing: No need to change the PDG convention for U
with
U mixes fields in the CC interaction lagrangian,
and thus U* mixes one-particle states,
← PDG

In the following, we shall limit ourselves to the twoinequivalent CP-conserving cases (U=U*) with eiδ=±1
[ cosδ = ±1 = “CP parity” ]
The two cases are transformed into one another through:
(CP parity flip)
![Page 10: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Masses: labels and splittings

Consensus labels: doublet=(ν1, ν2), with ν2 heaviest in both hierarchies
Sign of smallest splitting: conventional. The relative νe content of ν1 and ν2 isinstead physical (given by MSW effect)
![Page 11: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

We prefer to define the 2nd independent splitting as:
so that the largest and next-to-largest splittings, in both NH & IH, are given by:
and only one physical sign distinguishes NH (+) from IH (-),as it should be:
![Page 12: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Q = VMSW(x) = ±√2GFNe(x) (only in matter & for s13>0)
Q = δm2 > 0 (also in vac. & for s13=0, but hard)
sign(±Δm2) can be determined - in principle - by interference ofΔm2-driven oscillations with some Q-driven oscillations, provided that sign(Q) is known. Two ways (barring new neutrino physics):
12
The sensitivity to such interference effects, suppressed by the smallness of s13 and/or of δm2/Δm2, is very weak within current data.
In the next figure we shall see, e.g., how small is the current effect of δm2 in “distinguishing” the two hierarchies, within an analysis
of SKATM+ K2K + CHOOZ data with (Δm2, s223, s2
13) unconstrained

Constraints on (Δm2, s23, s13) from SKATM+K2K+CHOOZ
with (δm2, s212) fixed at their best-fit values from solar+KamLAND

Four cases with slight differences:
Slight preference (<1σ) for s13≠0 and δ=π (over δ=0)Very tiny difference at s13=0 (entirely due to δm2>0)
![Page 15: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Previous casesin terms of the other two parameters (s13 marginalized) at 1, 2, and 3 sigma*
Four cases ~equivalentphenomenologically in the parameters (Δm2,s2
23)
Weak (<1σ) but “stable”preference for less-than-maximal mixing (s2
23<1/2);
preference driven byδm2-induced effects;present also for s13=0
*Δχ2=(nσ)2 hereafter. Consensus on “typical” C.L. contours also desirable
![Page 16: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

δm2 effects are small, but not smaller than others one takes care of ….
(Bounds consistent with MACRO, Soudan 2)

Constraints on (δm2, s12, s13) from Solar ν + KamLAND

Solar data alone identifya single LMA solution inthe (δm2, tan2θ12) plane
LMA parameters aredominated by SNO and SK,sensitive to the 8B ν flux
SNO NC determinationof the 8B ν flux twicemore accurate than typicalSSM predictions
LMA param. basicallySSM-independent

Towards precision neutrino physics …. Solar neutrinos (Bari group), 2005 LEP EW Working Group, 2005

Main impact of2005 SNO data(at s13=0):
Slight increase insolar best-fit param.(δm2,s2
12), and thus better agreement with the latest datafrom KamLAND
Note change of scale: log tan2θ12 → lin sin2θ12. In general, consensus on trigonometric functions of θij is desirable for homogeneous comparison
KamLAND dominates
δm2 constraints

But: ±Δm2 effects aretypically O(10) smallerthan s13 effects (and canthus be currently neglected)
Solar ν data also sensitive to s13 …
..and, in principle, to±Δm2 (hierarchy)
![Page 24: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Interesting constraints on s213 from current solar+KamLAND data:
All solar data (radiochemical + Cherenkov) and KamLAND data(rate + spectrum shape) cooperate in setting limits on s2

Finally, combining solar & terrestrial ν oscillation data (-LSND) …

26
Needless to say, new physics beyond the standard 3ν framework (e.g., from LSND/MiniBOONE) might alter such bounds
![Page 27: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Probing absolute ν masses through non-oscillation searches

![Page 28: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Three main tools: (mβ, mββ, Σ)
1) β decay: m2i ≠ 0 can affect spectrum endpoint. Sensitive to
the “effective electron neutrino mass”:
2) 0ν2β decay: Can occur if m2i ≠ 0 and ν=ν. Sensitive to the
“effective Majorana mass” (and phases):
3) Cosmology: m2i ≠ 0 can affect large scale structures in (standard)
cosmology constrained by CMB+other data. Sensitive to:
28
![Page 29: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Even without non-oscillation data, the (mβ, mββ, Σ) parameter space is constrained by previous oscillation results:
Significant covariances
Partial overlap betweenthe two hierarchies
Large mββ spread due tounknown Majorana phases
29
![Page 30: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
But we do have information from non-oscillation experiments:
1) β decay: no signal so far. Mainz & Troitsk expts: mβ < O(eV)
2) 0ν2β decay, no signal in all experiments, except in the most sensitive one (Heidelberg-Moscow). Rather debated claim. Claim accepted: mββ in sub-eV range (with large uncertainties) Claim rejected: mββ < O(eV).
3) Cosmology. Upper bounds: Σ < eV/sub-eV range, depending on several inputs and priors. E.g., latest SDSS Lyα data crucial to reach sub-eV bounds (but: systematics?)

![Page 31: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
0ν2β claim rejected 0ν2β claim accepted
Cosmological bound dominates, but does not probe hierarchy yet
Tension with cosmological bound (no combination possible at face value)But: too early to draw definite conclusions
31
![Page 32: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
E.g., if 0ν2β claim accepted but SDSS Lyα data discarded:
Combination of all data(osc+nonosc.) possible
Complete overlap forthe two hierarchies(degenerate spectrumwith “large” masses: m1,2,3 ~ 0.5 eV)
High discovery potential in future (mβ, mββ, Σ) searches
32
![Page 33: Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing - INFN · Neutrino masses and neutrino mixing Eligio Lisi INFN, Bari, Italy NuFact’05 Frascati, June 21 1](https://reader030.fdocument.org/reader030/viewer/2022040101/5e1c8d25455fe95913795a22/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Summary and Conclusions • We have entered the era of precision neutrino physics. Consensus about conventions, mass-mixing parameter notation, C.L. contours, and graphical presentations is desirable for uniform comparison
• Combination with observables sensitive to absolute ν masses (mβ, mββ, Σ) needs further understanding and new measurements
• Impressive and rapid progress in ν physics in the last few years; but exciting challenges and possible surprises are ahead of us
• Within the standard 3ν framework, remarkable consistency of oscillation data (except LSND) with parameters: (but sensitivity to S13≠0, hierarchy, and δCP requires future searches)
