Low Voltage I-V Characteristics in Magnetic Tunnel Junctions

We show that elastic currents that take into account variations of the tunnel transmitivity with voltage and a large ratio of majority to minority spin densities of states of the $s$ band, can account for the low voltage current anomalies observed in magnet-oxide-magnet junctions. The anomalies can be positive, negative or have a mixed form, depending of the position of the Fermi level in the $s$ band, in agreement with observations. Magnon contribution is negligible small to account for the sharp drop of the magnetoresistance with the voltage bias.Comment: 8 pages, 3 postscript figure

Vus and neutron beta decay

We discuss the effect of the recent change of $V_{\rm us}$ by three standard deviations on the standard model predictions for neutron beta decay observables. We also discuss the effect the experimental error bars of $V_{\rm us}$ have on such predictions. Refined precision tests of the standard model will be made by a combined effort to improve measurements in neutron beta decay and in strangeness-changing decays. By itself the former will yield very precise measurements of $V_{\rm ud}$ and make also very precise predictions for $V_{\rm us}$

Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering as a precision test for the Standard Model and beyond: the COHERENT proposal case

Several experimental proposals expect to confirm the recent measurement of the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS). Motivated in particular by the next generation experiments of the COHERENT collaboration, we study their sensitivity to different tests of the Standard Model and beyond. We analyze the resolution that can be achieved by each future proposed detector in the measurement of the weak mixing angle; we also perform similar analysis in the context of Non-Standard Interaction (NSI) and in the case of an oscillation into a sterile neutrino state. We show that the future perspectives are interesting for these types of new physics searches.Comment: 19 pages, 7 figures, to appear in Advances in High Energy Physic
