Neutrino oscillations: from the discovery to the future

by Prof. Takaaki Kajita (The University of Tokyo)

Description

Neutrinos have been assumed to have no mass. If neutrinos have mass, neutrino oscillations should occur. Neutrino oscillations were discovered by studying atmospheric and solar neutrinos. I will discuss the discovery of neutrino oscillations, the status of the oscillation studies and the future prospects for neutrino oscillation experiments.
