Constraints on Non-Commutative Physics Scale with Neutrino-Electron Scattering
Neutrino-electron scatterings () are purely leptonic processes with
robust Standard Model (SM) predictions. Their measurements can therefore
provide constraints to physics beyond SM. Non-commutative (NC) field theories
modify space-time commutation relations, and allow neutrino electromagnetic
couplings at the tree level. Their contribution to neutrino-electron scattering
cross-section was derived. Constraints were placed on the NC scale parameter
from experiments with reactor and accelerator
neutrinos. The most stringent limit of at 95%
confidence level improves over the direct bounds from collider experiments.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, 2 tables, V2: minor revisions to match published

Constraints on Non-Standard Neutrino Interactions and Unparticle Physics with Neutrino-Electron Scattering at the Kuo-Sheng Nuclear Power Reactor
Neutrino-electron scatterings are purely leptonic processes with robust
Standard Model (SM) predictions. Their measurements can therefore provide
constraints to physics beyond SM. The \nuebar-e data taken at the Kuo-Sheng
Reactor Neutrino Laboratory were used to probe two scenarios: Non-Standard
Neutrino Interactions (NSI) and Unparticle Physics. New constraints were placed
to the NSI parameters (\el,\er) and (\etl,\etr) for the Non-Universal
and Flavor-Changing channels, respectively, as well as to the coupling
constants for scalar () and vector () unparticles to the
neutrinos and electrons.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, 1 table ; Published Version in V2 with minor

Constraints on nonstandard neutrino interactions and unparticle physics with (v) over bar (e)-e(-) scattering at the Kuo-Sheng nuclear power reactor
Neutrino-electron scatterings are purely leptonic processes with robust standard model (SM) predictions. Their measurements can therefore provide constraints to physics beyond SM. The (nu) over bar (e) - e data taken at the Kuo-Sheng Reactor Neutrino Laboratory were used to probe two scenarios: nonstandard neutrino interactions (NSI) and unparticle physics. New constraints were placed on the NSI parameters (epsilon(eL)(ee), epsilon(eR)(ee) ), (epsilon(eL)(e mu), epsilon(eR)(e mu)), and (epsilon(eL)(e tau), epsilon(eR)(e tau)) for the nonuniversal and flavor-changing channels, respectively, as well as to the coupling constants for scalar (lambda(0)) and vector (lambda(1)) unparticles to the neutrinos and electrons
