The phenomenon of neutrino oscillations has been established as the leading mechanism behind neutrino flavor transitions, providing solid experimental evidence that neutrinos are massive and lepton flavors are mixed. Here we review sub-leading effects in neutrino flavor transitions known as non-standard neutrino interactions, which is currently the most explored description for effects beyond the standard paradigm of neutrino oscillations. In particular, we report on the phenomenology of non-standard neutrino interactions and their experimental and phenomenological bounds as well as future sensitivity and discovery reach.

  1. Neutrino oscillations at dual baselines

    hep-ph 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A new correlation-exploiting parameter is introduced for dual-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments to aid determination of mass hierarchy and CP phase, analyzed in the T2HKK context.

  2. $\delta_{\rm CP}$-free constraints on NSI parameters $\varepsilon_{e\mu}$ and $\varepsilon_{e\tau}$ using high-purity $\nu_\mu\,{\rm CC}$ events at IceCube DeepCore

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    IceCube DeepCore atmospheric neutrino data yields δ_CP-independent constraints on NSI parameters ε_eμ and ε_eτ that are consistent with standard interactions.

  3. Constraints on Light Sterile Neutrinos and Scalar Non-Standard Interactions Using the First Reactor Antineutrino Oscillation Results at JUNO

    hep-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    JUNO's initial 59-day dataset constrains sterile neutrino mass splittings between 10^{-5} and 10^{-2} eV² down to sin²2θ₁₄ ~ O(10^{-1}) and scalar NSI |η_ee| below O(10^{-2}).

  4. Generalized Neutrino Interactions: constraints and parametrizations

    hep-ph 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Relating two GNI parametrizations shows scalar neutrino-quark interactions are more tightly constrained by COHERENT while tensor interactions are better bounded by deep inelastic scattering.

  5. Searching non-standard interactions with atmospheric neutrinos at ESSnuSB

    hep-ex 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    With 5.4 Mt·year atmospheric neutrino exposure, ESSnuSB could constrain |ε_eμ^m| < 0.053, |ε_eτ^m| < 0.057, |ε_μτ^m| < 0.021 and related diagonal differences at 90% CL, while NSI would alter mass ordering and θ23 octa...

  6. Effect of Off-diagonal NSI Parameters on Entanglement Measurements in Neutrino Oscillations

    hep-ph 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Off-diagonal NSI parameters modify EOF, Concurrence and Negativity in neutrino oscillations, with largest effects at low energy and Negativity remaining dominant at higher energies while showing clear δ_CP dependence.

  7. Non-Standard Neutrino Interactions at Neutrino Experiments and Colliders

    hep-ph 2025-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Collider searches are generally more constraining than neutrino measurements on simplified models of non-standard neutrino interactions, except possibly for muon-philic leptoquarks and certain heavy neutral leptons.

  8. Effects of tau-neutrino detection on non-standard interactions at DUNE with a short discussion on the nature of neutrino mixing

    hep-ph 2025-03 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Simulations show that tau neutrino appearance at DUNE improves sensitivity to NSI parameters especially ε_μτ, hierarchy, CP violation, octant, NSI phases, and PMNS unitarity constraints.
