About the speaker: 
Supriya is a postdoctoral researcher in high-energy physics, currently based at the Universidad Católica del Norte, Chile. He completed his PhD in 2024 from the Physical Research Laboratory, India, and the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar. His research focuses on neutrino oscillation phenomenology, particularly exploring possible signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model.
He studies the interplay between different neutrino sectors, including atmospheric, accelerator, and reactor neutrino experiments. He is especially interested in how new physics effects — such as Lorentz invariance violation, non-standard interactions, and sterile neutrinos — can impact the determination of key neutrino parameters, including the mass hierarchy, the θ₂₃ octant, and the CP phase.

      Probing New Physics Scenarios in DUNE Using Accelerator and Atmospheric Neutrinos

      The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation long-baseline neutrino experiment designed to determine the remaining unknown parameters of the standard three-flavor neutrino oscillation framework, including the octant of θ23, the neutrino mass hierarchy, and the CP-violating phase. In addition to its primary oscillation program, DUNE will provide a powerful platform to probe several physics beyond the Standard Model. In this talk, I will explore the sensitivity of DUNE to some new physics scenarios, including Lorentz invariance violation, non-standard neutrino interactions, and the presence of eV-scale sterile neutrinos. I will discuss how information from both accelerator and atmospheric neutrino channels can provide complementary probes of these scenarios and examine their impact on the determination of standard oscillation parameters.
