Sterile neutrinos in cosmology and how to find them in the lab
Abstract
Description
A number of observed phenomena in high energy physics and cosmology lack their resolution within the Standard Model of particle physics. These puzzles include neutrino oscillations, baryon asymmetry of the universe and existence of dark matter. We discuss the suggestion that all these problems can be solved by new physics which exists only below the electroweak scale. The dedicated experiments that can confirm or rule out this possibility are discussed.
