Description

I will present studies of Hyper-K's potential sensitivity to sterile neutrino oscillations induced by the parameters |Uµ4|^2 and |Uτ4|^2 and isotropic Lorentz-violating parameters from the Standard Model Extension (SME). These sensitivity studies are based on SK analyses, scaled up to equivalent HK livetimes.
