论文摘要
搜索超出标准模型的新物理学是当今粒子物理学的主要方向。有几种新物理学的实验提示。统计学上最显着的(5-6 $σ$)是EV质量尺度无菌中微子的提示。它们来自反应堆实验中的抗肿瘤消失,在具有非常强大的放射性源的实验中,$ν_e$消失,电子(抗)中微子出现在MUON(抗)中微子束中。该领域的最重要结果是在2021年通过最佳,微生物和中微子-4的协作以及其他一些实验获得的。但是,情况仍然存在或更具争议性。我们审查了未来几年的新物理和前景的这些迹象,重点是反应堆实验。
Search for New Physics beyond the Standard Model is the main direction in particle physics nowadays. There are several experimental hints of New Physics. The most statistically significant (5-6$σ$) are the hints of eV mass scale sterile neutrinos. They come from antineutrino disappearance in reactor experiments, $ν_e$ disappearance in experiments with very powerful radioactive sources, and electron (anti)neutrino appearance in the muon (anti)neutrino beams. Very important results in this field were obtained in 2021 by the BEST, MicroBooNE, and Neutrino-4 collaborations as well as by several other experiments. However, the situation is still or maybe even more controversial. We review these indications of New Physics and prospects for the next few years with the emphasis on reactor experiments.
