New Prospects for High-energy Neutrinos from gamma-ray Bursts

Description: High-energy neutrinos from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) have been expected since the pre-Swift era. Such signals may be detected by future large neutrino detectors such as IceCube. Recently Swift has shown several novel phenomena. We suggest the new prospects for high-energy neutrino emission in the Swift era. Expected signals, if detected, are useful for revealing of the nature of GRBs.

MiniBooNE "Windows on the Universe"

Description: Progress in the last few decades has left neutrino physics with several vexing issues. Among them are the following questions: (1) Why are lepton mixing angles so different from those in the quark sector? (2) What is the most probable range of the reactor mixing angle? (3) Is the atmospheric mixing angle maximal? (4) What is the number of fermion generations? These are some of the issues that neutrino science hopes to study; this article will explore these questions as part of a more general sc… more

Determination of neutron cross sections and resonance parameters for the stable tellurium isotopes for thallium 205 and for the osmium isotopes. Progress report, October 1, 1978-March 1, 1979. [Summaries of research activities at Denison, University]

Description: Initial measurements by LLL and NBS of the ratio of the /sup 186/Os capture cross section to that of /sup 187/Os near 30 keV, provided a crucial input parameter for use of the Re-Os chronometer to estimate the duration of nucleosynthesis and hence the age of the universe. The resulting estimate of approx. = 20 billion years was much longer than the estimate from the only other method, U-Th dating. The Re-Os chronometer requires, however, not ratios of cross sections measured at laboratory tempe… more
