We explore the capabilities of the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) to measure $\nu_\tau$ charged-current interactions and the associated oscillation probability $P(\nu_\mu \to \nu_\tau)$ at its far detector, concentrating on how such results can be used to probe neutrino properties and interactions. DUNE has the potential to identify significantly more $\nu_\tau$ events than all existing experiments and can use this data sample to nontrivially test the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm by providing complementary measurements to those from the $\nu_e$ appearance and $\nu_\mu$ disappearance channels. We further discuss the sensitivity of the $\nu_\tau$ appearance channel to several hypotheses for the physics that may lurk beyond the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm: a non-unitary lepton mixing matrix, the $3+1$ light neutrinos hypothesis, and the existence of non-standard neutral-current neutrino interactions. Throughout, we also consider the relative benefits of the proposed high-energy tune of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) beam-line.

    PRISM multi-angle measurements in DUNE restore sensitivity to non-unitarity and sterile neutrinos in electron and muon sectors to levels achievable with small spectral uncertainties, with only marginal gains for tau n...

  3. Flavor as an Incomplete Structure: Conceptual Questions and the Role of DUNE

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    DUNE's long-baseline program combined with near-detector and PRISM strategies is argued to be well-suited for detecting correlated deviations from the minimal three-flavor neutrino framework.

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

    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.

  5. Flavor as an Incomplete Structure: Conceptual Questions and the Role of DUNE

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    Conceptual discussion framing flavor as an incomplete SM structure and arguing DUNE's phased program can search for correlated departures from three-flavor neutrino mixing.
