Neutrino Scattering: Why and How - Lecture 2

Explore the intricacies of neutrino scattering in this second lecture by Jonathan M Paley, part of the "Understanding the Universe Through Neutrinos" program. Delve into the reasons behind studying neutrino scattering and the methods employed to investigate these elusive particles. Learn about the challenges in detecting neutrinos due to their weak interactions with matter and the specialized experiments designed to study them. Gain insights into the importance of neutrino scattering in advancing our understanding of particle physics beyond the Standard Model, including questions about neutrino mass ordering, CP violation, and the potential existence of sterile neutrinos. Discover how this field contributes to addressing fundamental questions about the nature of neutrinos and their role in the universe.
