2 What is the Cold Dark Matter, W CDM = 0.23, and Dark Energy, W L = 0.73? CMB including n-mass: Yamazaki, Kajino, Mathews & Ichiki, Phys. Rep. 517 (2012), Is BARYON sector, W B = 0.04, well understood? Challenge of the Century Universal expansion is most likely accelerating and flat! BBN with Axions + SUSY to solve Dark Matter Problem & Li Problem: Kusakabe, Balantekin, Kajino & Pehlivan, Phys. Lett. B718 (2013) 704. SUSY-DM m n = 0 is the unique signal to go beyond the Standard Model! n mass and hierarchy? Today s Talk W B + W CDM + W L = 1 Supernova n-process Nucleosynthesis to determine the n-mass HIERARCHY.

3 Higgs(standard model) produces Quark Masses. Neutrino Masses 1 = Quark & Lepton Masses 10,000,000,000 E = mc 2 Why 10-10? This could be a signature of new physics at times higher energy scale than the ordinary scale. n i + n i e + + e - 2g (T)? n ν-masses require a theory beyond the standard model! Generation n Key Physics suggested by FINITE mass neutrinos: Unification of elementary forces beyond the standard model? CP violation and Lepto- & Baryo-genesis? Why left-handed neutrinos, Majorana or Dirac? Explosion Mechanism of Supernovae?

4 KNOWN of Neutrino Oscillations KAMIOKANDE, SK, KamLand (reactor ν), SNO determined m 12 2 and θ 12 uniquely, and also SK (atmospheric ν) determined m 23 2 and θ 23 uniquely. 23-mixing sin 2 2q 23 = 1.0 Δm 2 23 = ev 2 12-mixing sin 2 2q 12 = (q 12 +q C =p/2) Δm 2 12 = ev 2 Cabibbo angle UNKNOWN 13-mixing, hierarchy, CP, mass sin 2 2q 13 (< 0.1) T2K, MINOS, RENO, Daya Bay, Double Chooz m 2 13 = ±2.4x10-3 ev 2 δ=cp violation phase Absolute Mass 0nbb, cosmology E(n )=E(n ): Yokomakura et al., PL B544, 286.

37 n-mass hierarchy: SUMMARY - We proposed a new nucleosynthetic method to estimate average n-spectra from core-collapse supernovae: T(n e ) = 3.2MeV, T(n e ) = 4.0MeV, T(n x ) = 6.0MeV. - 7 Li/ 11 B isotopic ratios of SiC X-grains (SN-grains) enriched in n- process materials have the potential to solve the mass hierarchy for finite q 13. Inverted hierarchy is more preferred statistically. Total n-mass: - Curvature perturbation is shown to be generated by the extra anisotropic stress π ext without tuning the initial condition of inflation-driven (pre-big-bang) perturbation. This would constrain the generation epoch and the nature of primordial (unknown) π ext. - Total n-mass is constrained to be S m ν < 0.2 ev from the MCMC analysis of CMB temperature and polarization anisotropies including the primordial magnetic field.
