Measuring θ₁₃ via muon neutrino to electron neutrino oscillations in the MINOS experimentToner, Ruth Bushnell January 2012 (has links)
One of the primary goals in neutrino physics at the present moment is to make a measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameter B13 . This parameter, in addition to being unknown, could potentially allow for the introduction of CP violation into the lepton sector. The MINOS long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment has the ability to make a measurement of this parameter, by looking for the oscillation of muon neutrinos to electron neutrinos between a Near and Far Detector over a distance of 735 km. This thesis discusses the development of an analysis framework to search for this oscillation mode. Two major improvements to pre-existing analysis techniques have been implemented by the author. First, a novel particle ID technique based on strip topology, known as the Library Event Matching (LEM) method, is optimized for use in MINOS. Second, a multiple bin likelihood method is developed to fit the data. These two improvements, when combined, increase MINOS' sensitivity to sin2(W13 ) by 27% over previous analyses. This thesis sees a small excess over background in the Far Detector. A Frequentist interpretation of the data rules out B13 = 0 at 91 %. A Bayesian interpretation of the data is also presented, placing the most stringent upper boundary on the oscillation parameter to date, at sin2 (2B13 ) < 0.09(0.015) for the Normal (Inverted) Hierarchy and 6cp = 0.

Neutrino oscillations and the early universeBell, Nicole Fiona January 2000 (has links)
We construct a model which provides maximal mixing between a pseudo-Dirac Vµ/VT pair, based on a local U(1)Lµ-LT symmetry. Its strengths, weaknesses and phenomenological consequences are examined. A new intermediate range force is predicted, mediated by the light gauge boson of U(1)Lµ-LT. Through the mixing of µ, T and e, this force couples to electrons and thus may be searched for in precision “gravity” experiments.The generation of relic neutrino asymmetries in the early universe via the mechanism of partially coherent active-sterile neutrino oscillations is considered. We study how an approximate evolution equation for the growth of the asymmetry can be extracted from the exact Quantum Kinetic Equations which describe the evolution of the neutrino ensemble, and examine the nature of some of the approximations employed.

Étude et simulation de la lumière de scintillation produite et se propageant dans une chambre à dérive double-phase à argon liquide, dans le contexte du projet DUNE / Study and simulation of the scintillation light produced and propagating in a dual phase liquid argon time projection chamber, in the context of the DUNE experimentChappuis, Anne 19 October 2018 (has links)
Le projet DUNE est un projet d’expérience d’oscillations de neutrinos sur faisceau longue-distance, dédié en particulier à la détermination de la hiérarchie de masse des neutrinos et à la mesure de la phase de violation CP intervenant dans le mécanisme d’oscillations. Ce projet consiste en un faisceau intense de neutrinos de 1300 km et un détecteur massif contenant plus de 40 kilotonnes d’argon liquide, basé sur la technologie des chambres à dérive à argon liquide (LArTPC). Deux approches de cette technologie sont actuellement en développement, menant à l'installation au CERN de deux prototypes dont la construction devrait s'achever fin 2018. Le travail présenté dans cette thèse s’intègre dans le cadre du projet ProtoDUNE-DP, qui vise à prouver la faisabilité de la technologie dite « double-phase », c’est-à-dire utilisant de l'argon liquide et gazeux, pour les LArTPC de cette envergure. Deux signaux principaux sont attendus dans un tel détecteur, un signal de charges et un signal lumineux de scintillation. Le signal lumineux peut être utilisé dans le système de déclenchement d'acquisition des données, dans l’identification et éventuellement la réjection du signal dû aux muons cosmiques, et pour des mesures calorimétriques de précision. Des simulations préalables de ce signal sont donc nécessaires afin d'en comprendre les particularités et de développer des algorithmes d'identification. Cette thèse porte en particulier sur le développement de cette simulation et sur l’étude de la propagation des photons de scintillation au sein du détecteur. Les différents mécanismes de production de la lumière de scintillation, la simulation développée au cours de cette thèse et les études réalisées sur la propagation de la lumière de scintillation dans ProtoDUNE-DP seront présentés. Ces simulations ont également pu être comparées aux données recueillies avec un pré-prototype double-phase installé au CERN en 2017, afin de tester la validité de la simulation et d’en améliorer les différents paramètres. / DUNE is a future long-baseline neutrino experiment designed to determine, among others, the neutrino mass hierarchy and to measure the CP violation phase that enters the neutrino oscillation process. This project is based on a 1300 km long high intensity neutrino beam and a massive detector containing more than 40 kilotons of liquid argon using the liquid argon time projection chamber technology (LArTPC). Two approaches of this technology are currently under development, leading to the construction of two prototypes to be in place at the end of 2018 at CERN. The work of this thesis is part of the ProtoDUNE-DP project, which aims at probing the capabilities of the so-called “dual-phase” technology, that uses both gaseous and liquid argon, for a large-scale detector. Two kind of signals, a charge signal and a scintillation light signal, are expected in a LArTPC. The light signal can be used as a trigger, for the identification and rejection of the cosmic background, and for precise calorimetric measurements. Prior simulations of this signal are needed in order to improve our understanding of the scintillation light signal and to develop the identification algorithms. This work addresses the development of this simulation and the study of the scintillation photon behavior in the liquid argon detector. The different scintillation light production mechanisms, the developed simulation and the different studies on the light propagation in ProtoDUNE-DP are presented. These simulations have also been compared with light data taken at CERN in 2017 with a first demonstrator, in order to validate and tune the simulation.
