New physics effects in future oscillation experiments — •Toshihiko Ota — Uni Wuerzburg

Neutrino oscillation experiments enter the phase of precision measurements. The high statistics and precision of forthcoming experiments are effective not only for the determination of the standard oscillation parameters, but also for the discovery of the physics beyond the standard model. In this talk, we study the performance of near future experiments (reactor and superbeam neutrino experiments) and also neutrino factory type experiments in the presence of such new physics effects, using the method of non-standard interactions (NSIs). These provide a convenient, model-independent way of parameterizing a wide class of new physics scenarios.
