Beschreibung:
This book provides a comprehensive examination of neutrinos, covering their research history and theory, as well as their applications in other fields. The new edition delves into new results on neutrino cross sections, solar neutrinos, neutrinos from supernovae, and high energy neutrinos, as well as new experimental results.
1. Important historical experiments. 2. Properties of neutrinos. The standard model of particle physics. 4. Neutrinos as a probe of nuclear structure. 5. Neutrino masses and physics beyond the standard model. 6. Direct neutrino mass searches. 7. Double Beta-decay. 8. Neutrino oscillations. 9. Atmospheric neutrinos. 10. Solar neutrinos. 11. Neutrinos from supernovae. 12. Ultra-high energetic cosmic neutrinos. 13. Neutrinos in cosmology. 14. Summary and outlook
