    THE PHYSICS OF MASSIVE NEUTRINOS

    by B Kayser (Nat'l Sci. Foundation) , F Gibrat-Debu (CEN- Saclay) , & F Perrier (SLAC)

    This book explains the physics and phenomenology of massive neutrinos. The authors argue that neutrino mass is not unlikely and consider briefly the search for evidence of this mass in decay processes before they examine the physics and phenomenology of neutrino oscillation. The physics of Majorana neutrinos (neutrinos which are their own antiparticles) is then discussed. This volume requires of the reader only a knowledge of quantum mechanics and of very elementary quantum field theory.

    • Introduction
    • Phenomenology of Massive Neutrinos
    • Physics of Massive Neutral Leptons
