Long baseline neutrino experiments and leptonic CP violation
Abstract
The study of CP violation addresses fundamental questions such as – are the laws of physics the same for matter and anti-matter. CP is a discrete symmetry of nature given by a product of two quantities : charge conjugation (C) and parity (P). Detecting leptonic CP violation is one of the most challenging goals in particle physics today. An attractive possibility to measure CP phase is via long baseline accelerator experiments such as Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE). In this talk, we will show that clean extraction of CP violating phase becomes a formidable task in presence of new physics. We discuss one possible experimental strategy to distinguish between standard paradigm and the new physics scenarios.
