The Physics of Neutrinos
by R.Z. Funchal, B. Schmauch, G. Giesen
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 67
Description:
We start by giving a panorama of neutrino experiments. We briefly discuss the history of neutrinos, their experimental discovery, the quest for neutrino flavor oscillations and the experiments that finally established them. We also address non-oscillation terrestrial neutrino experiments that try to measure the absolute neutrino mass and to show whether neutrinos are Dirac or Majorana fermions...

An Introduction to Spontaneous Symmetry Breakingby Aron J. Beekman, et al. - arXiv.org
Starting from a careful definition of symmetry in physics, we introduce symmetry breaking and its consequences. Emphasis is placed on the physics of singular limits, showing the reality of symmetry breaking even in small-sized systems.
