Abstract
In the seventy years since Pauli ’s brilliant conjecture that neutrinos must exist, our understanding of neutrino properties has proven to be remarkably limited. There are two key questions that have important consequences at the most basic level of our understanding of neutrinos. Do neutrinos have nonzero masses? And if so, what are their mass values? The answers to these questions are important both for our theoretical understanding of fundamental interactions of nuclei and particles and because the answers have significant astrophysical and cosmological implications.
