Wed 12th Mar3 ‘Why does the universe exist?’ Only exotic theories incorporate a big bang with unequal particles, anti-particles and photons at beginning of universe Only exotic theories incorporate a big bang with unequal particles, anti-particles and photons at beginning of universe Today nB/nγ ≈ 6x10 -10 Today nB/nγ ≈ 6x10 -10 Muchannihilation in early universe, but not perfect Much annihilation in early universe, but not perfect CP-violation provides a possible solution: observed CP- violation in quark sector only makes one galaxy… CP-violation provides a possible solution: observed CP- violation in quark sector only makes one galaxy… CP-violation of heavy Majorana neutrinos could provide the answer CP-violation of heavy Majorana neutrinos could provide the answer Recent discoveries have caused excitement: oscillations mean mass Recent discoveries have caused excitement: oscillations mean mass Study of neutrinos can give information about extremely high energies via the See-saw mechanism Study of neutrinos can give information about extremely high energies via the See-saw mechanism nν/nγ ≈ 1/3 nν/nγ ≈ 1/3

4. Wed 12th Mar4 73km ILC CLIC or RAL? VLHC How big would a neutrino factory / muon collider be?

5. Wed 12th Mar5 Muon beams make neutrino beams m μ /m e = 207 beamstrahlung, bremstrahlung, initial state radiation considerably lower low energy spread: dp/p=0.003% which gives scanning precision (A 0, H 0 ) But muon lifetime: 2.2 microseconds rapid acceleration and cooling required 4 MW 10 GeV proton beam gives required 10^21 muons / year

6. Wed 12th Mar6 FETS RFQ Beam FETS chopper Fast chopping section Slow chopper and beam dump Gran Sasso, Soudan Mine, Boulby, Homestake, Kamioka...
