Probing quantum gravity effects in atmospheric neutrino oscillations

  • 4 February 2000
Abstract
It is shown that the results of the Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino experiment, interpreted in terms of nu_mu<--->nu_tau oscillations, can probe possible decoherence effects induced by quantum gravity with very high sensitivity, supplementing current laboratory tests based on kaon oscillations and on neutron interferometry. The implications for nu_mu<--->nu_tau accelerator searches are briefly discussed.
