Spinors in the hyperbolic algebra
The three-dimensional universal complex Clifford algebra is used to represent
relativistic vectors in terms of paravectors. In analogy to the Hestenes
spacetime approach spinors are introduced in an algebraic form. This removes
the dependance on an explicit matrix representation of the algebra.Comment: 9 pages Latex2
Kappa-contraction from to
We present contraction prescription of the quantum groups: from to

J. Phys. A {\bf 28} (1995) 2589]. We provide explicite prescription for
contraction of and generators of and arrive at

Wroclaw neutrino event generator
A neutrino event generator developed by the Wroclaw Neutrino Group is
described. The physical models included in the generator are discussed and
illustrated with the results of simulations. The considered processes are
quasi-elastic scattering and pion production modelled by combining the
resonance excitation and deep inelastic scattering.Comment: Talk given at 2nd Scandanavian Neutrino Workshop (SNOW 2006),

Quantum E(2) groups and Lie bialgebra structures
Lie bialgebra structures on are classified. For two Lie bialgebra
structures which are not coboundaries (i.e. which are not determined by a
classical -matrix) we solve the cocycle condition, find the Lie-Poisson
brackets and obtain quantum group relations. There is one to one correspondence
between Lie bialgebra structures on and possible quantum deformations of

Initial report from the ICFA Neutrino Panel
In July 2013 ICFA established the Neutrino Panel with the mandate "To promote
international cooperation in the development of the accelerator-based
neutrino-oscillation program and to promote international collaboration in the
development a neutrino factory as a future intense source of neutrinos for
particle physics experiments". This, the Panel's Initial Report, presents the
conclusions drawn by the Panel from three regional "Town Meetings" that took
place between November 2013 and February 2014.
After a brief introduction and a short summary of the status of the knowledge
of the oscillation parameters, the report summarises the approved programme and
identifies opportunities for the development of the field. In its conclusions,
the Panel recognises that to maximise the discovery potential of the
accelerator-based neutrino-oscillation programme it will be essential to
exploit the infrastructures that exist at CERN, FNAL and J-PARC and the
expertise and resources that reside in laboratories and institutes around the
world. Therefore, in its second year, the Panel will consult with the
accelerator-based neutrino-oscillation community and its stakeholders to:
develop a road-map for the future accelerator-based neutrino-oscillation
programme that exploits the ambitions articulated at CERN, FNAL and J-PARC and
includes the programme of measurement and test-beam exposure necessary to
ensure the programme is able to realise its potential; develop a proposal for a
coordinated "Neutrino RD" programme, the accelerator and detector R&D programme
required to underpin the next generation of experiments; and to explore the
opportunities for the international collaboration necessary to realise the
Neutrino Factory.Comment: ICFA Neutrino Panel 2014(01
On the complementarity of Hyper-K and LBNF
The next generation of long-baseline experiments is being designed to make a
substantial step in the precision of measurements of neutrino-oscillation
probabilities. Two qualitatively different proposals, Hyper-K and LBNF, are
being considered for approval. This document outlines the complimentarity
between Hyper-K and LBNF.Comment: 5 pager
-Deformation of Poincar\'e Superalgebra with Classical Lorentz Subalgebra and its Graded Bicrossproduct Structure
The -deformed Poincar{\'e} superalgebra written in Hopf
superalgebra form is transformed to the basis with classical Lorentz subalgebra
generators. We show that in such a basis the -deformed Poincare
superalgebra can be written as graded bicrossproduct. We show that the
-deformed superalgebra acts covariantly on -deformed
chiral superspace.Comment: 13 pages, late
Final State Interactions Effects in Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions
Final State Interactions effects are discussed in the context of Monte Carlo
simulations of neutrino-nucleus interactions. A role of Formation Time is
explained and several models describing this effect are compared. Various
observables which are sensitive to FSI effects are reviewed including
pion-nucleus interaction and hadron yields in backward hemisphere. NuWro Monte
Carlo neutrino event generator is described and its ability to understand
neutral current production data in GeV neutrino flux
experiments is demonstrated.Comment: 13 pages, 16 figure
