Abstract

New interactions in the neutrino sector have been proposed in the literature for different reasons, phenomenological as well as driven by theoretical arguments. The various approaches to the problem include the use of the effective theory formalism, simplify models or even specific UV completed models. In this project we intend to study the phenomenological consequences of some of these models where the new interaction is mediated by a light vector boson. We will investigate the best current experimental limits to these models and point out the perspectives to improve them in the future. (AU)
