Non-standard interactions: atmospheric versus neutrino factory experiments

Abstract: We consider the potential of a generic neutrino factory (NUFACT) in probing nonstandard neutrino-matter interactions (NSI). We find that the sensitivity to flavourchanging (FC) NSI can be substantially improved with respect to present atmospheric neutrino data, especially at energies higher than approximately 50 GeV, where the effect of the tau mass is small. For example, a 100 GeV NUFACT can probe FC neutrino interactions at the level of few |ε| < few × 10 −4 at 99 % C.L.

“…In general, neutrino oscillations and NSIs in terrestrial neutrino experiments have been studied extensively in the literature, using the neutrino factory project [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] and other different neutrino facilities (like super-beams and β-beams) [22][23][24][25][26] to assess the impact of the NSI effects in neutrino physics.…”
