Abstract

The neutrino is now central to elementary particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. Neutrinos play a key role in theories that unify the elementary particles and forces. They yield clues about the dark matter holding the universe together, and they are critical in understanding not only how the Sun shines but also how stars exploded to create the majority of the elements in the periodic table. Recent discoveries, however, have created special opportunities to use neutrinos in new ways to advance our knowledge of the universe and the laws that govern it.
