| Abstract | |
The objective of this work is the study of an alternative mechanism, that is not the hypothesized sterile neutrino, to solve the reactor anti-neutrino anomaly, the Gallium anomaly and the LSND anomaly. We will also understand how to fit this mechanism in the theory of particle physics through non standard interactions. In addition, we will study the neutrino-less double beta decay and set constraints to the effective Majorana neutrino mass. Furthermore we will understand the limits that the ECHo experiment will provide for direct measurements of the neutrino mass (AU) | |
