Physics of Massive Neutrinos

Klappentext This is the second edition of a comprehensive and authoritative text that describes all aspects of neutrino mass and mixing. Zusammenfassung The neutrino! an elementary particle! plays a special role in the physics of particles and nuclei as well as in astrophysics and cosmology. Since the neutrino interacts only very weakly with matter! it is very difficult to observe. As a result! many of its basic properties are still unknown.
