"Secret" neutrino interactions [PDF]
We review the information about a potentially strong non-standard four-neutrino interaction that can be obtained from available experimental data. By using LEP results and nucleosynthesis data we find that a contact four-fermion neutrino interaction that

Neutrino Opacity. II. Neutrino-Nucleon Interactions [PDF]
The contribution of neutrino-nucleon interactions to the neutrino opacity of matter is studied, special attention being paid to possible astrophysical applications such as supernova explosions. The results of recent accelerator experiments with high-energy neutrinos are used to show that nonresonant neutrino-nucleon scattering does not make a ...

Status of the solutions to neutrino anomalies based on non-standard neutrino interactions [PDF]
We review the status of the solutions to neutrino anomalies by flavor-changing as well as flavor-diagonal neutrino interactions. While it is difficult to explain the atmospheric neutrino data the solar neutrino data can be well accounted for by the ...

Lepton number violating interactions and their effects on neutrino oscillation experiments [PDF]
Mixing between bosons that transform differently under the standard model gauge group, but identically under its unbroken subgroup, can induce interactions that violate the total lepton number. We discuss four-fermion operators that mediate lepton number

Neutrinos and their interactions [PDF]
We present a short overview of the importance of the study of "Neutrino Interactions in the Intermediate and High Energy Region", with an introduction to the neutrinos and a very brief description about the collection of invited articles.

Probing non-standard neutrino interactions with a light boson from next galactic and diffuse supernova neutrinos [PDF]
Non-standard neutrino interactions with a massive boson can produce the bosons in the core of core-collapse supernovae (SNe). After the emission of the bosons from the SN core, their subsequent decays into neutrinos can modify the SN neutrino flux.

Probing neutrino interactions and dark radiation with gravitational waves [PDF]
After their generation, cosmological backgrounds of gravitational waves propagate nearly freely but for the expansion of the Universe and the anisotropic stress of free-streaming particles.

Search for an Excess of Electron Neutrino Interactions in MicroBooNE Using Multiple Final-State Topologies. [PDF]
We present a measurement of ν_{e} interactions from the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam using the MicroBooNE liquid argon time projection chamber to address the nature of the excess of low energy interactions observed by the MiniBooNE Collaboration. Three

Neutrino interactions with matter and the MiniBooNE anomaly [PDF]
The excess of electron-like events measured by MiniBooNE challenges our understanding of neutrinos and their interactions. We review the status of this open problem and ongoing efforts to resolve it.

Neutrino interaction physics in neutrino telescopes [PDF]
AbstractNeutrino telescopes can observe neutrino interactions starting at GeV energies by sampling a small fraction of the Cherenkov radiation produced by charged secondary particles. These experiments instrument volumes massive enough to collect substantial samples of neutrinos up to the TeV scale as well as small samples at the PeV scale. This unique
