The advent of precision neutrino physics has resulted in detector technology (easily) capable of observing upwards of 10^5 charged current scattering events in the lifetime of an experiment. This naturally motivates a theoretical program targeting sub-G_F physics at the intensity frontier. In this talk I will discuss some examples of how large-scale neutrino detectors can... More »

While over the past two decades a largely consistent picture of neutrino oscillations has emerged, a few unexplained anomalies put a serious dent in this framework. After introducing the LSND, MiniBooNE, and reactor anomalies, we will first discuss attempts to explain the latter two within the Standard Model. In the second part of the talk,... More »
