Neutrino oscillations
Description
Current theories for unification of the weak, electromagnetic and strong interactions require neither massless neutrinos or exact lepton number conservation. If neutrinos are massive the weak interaction eigenstates can be thought of as linear combinations of neutrino mass eigenstates. The search for neutrino oscillations provides limits on the mass difference between eigenstates, and the mixing angle. The current experimental limits are presented. (author)
