The Neutrino Portal: sterile neutrinos, cosmology and other signatures
Luca Vecchi (EPFL)
I discuss scenarios in which a dark light sector couples to the Standard Model via the so-called “neutrino portal”. A generic implication of this framework is the existence of gauge-singlet fermions (sterile neutrinos) that act as messengers between the dark sector and the active neutrinos. I show under which conditions cosmological constraints become inefficient and …

Francesco Filippi (LNF)
New generation of particle accelerators is based on the excitation of large amplitude plasma waves driven by either electron or laser beams, named as Plasma Wakefield Accelerator (PWFA) and Laser Wakefield Accelerator (LWFA), respectively. The amplitude of the waves, as well as their spatial dimensions and the consequent accelerating gradient depend strongly on the local …
