New tests of neutrino properties with solar and supernova neutrinos

John Beacom (Caltech)

2:30pm Wednesday January 5 in Curia II

I will discuss new direct tests of neutrino properties using astrophysical sources of neutrinos, including:

(1) the shape of the recoil electron spectrum measured from solar neutrinos in SuperKamiokande and the neutrino magnetic moments

(2) the e+ angular distribution of nuebar + p --> e+ + n and its role in identifying oscillations into nuebars in various experiments

(3) time-of-flight measurements of the mu and tau neutrino masses from a Galactic supernova.
