We upgrade the study of the physical reach of a Neutrino Factory considering the possibility to distinguish a three (active) neutrino oscillation scenario from the scenario in which a light sterile neutrino is also present. The distinction is easily performed in the so--called 2+2 scheme, but also in the more problematic 3+1 scheme it can be attained in some regions of the parameter space. We also discuss the CP violating phase determination, showing that the effects of a large phase in the three--neutrino theory cannot be reproduced in a four--neutrino, CP conserving, model.

The prospects of measuring the leptonic angles and CP-odd phases at a {em neutrino factory} are discussed in the scenario of three active plus one sterile neutrino. We consider the $ u_mu raw u_e$ LSND signal. Its associated large mass difference le
ads to observable neutrino oscillations at short ($sim 1$ km) baseline experiments. Sensitivities to the leptonic angles down to $10^{-3}$ can be easily achieved with a 1 Ton detector. Longer baseline experiments ($sim 100$ km) with a 1 Kton detector can provide very clean tests of CP-violation especially through tau lepton detection.
In response to the growing interest in building a Neutrino Factory to produce high intensity beams of electron- and muon-neutrinos and antineutrinos, in October 1999 the Fermilab Directorate initiated two six-month studies. The first study, organized
by N. Holtkamp and D. Finley, was to investigate the technical feasibility of an intense neutrino source based on a muon storage ring. This design study has produced a report in which the basic conclusion is that a Neutrino Factory is technically feasible, although it requires an aggressive R&D program. The second study, which is the subject of this report, was to explore the physics potential of a Neutrino Factory as a function of the muon beam energy and intensity, and for oscillation physics, the potential as a function of baseline.
We examine the prospects of detecting an analogous process of neutrinoless double beta decay at a neutrino factory from a high energy muon storage ring. Limits from LEP experiments, neutrinoless double beta decay as well as from global fits have to b
e incorporated and severely restrict the results. We investigate what limits on light and heavy effective Majorana neutrino masses can be obtained and compare them with existing ones. Discussed are also contributions from right-handed neutrinos and purely right-handed interactions. Other ``new physics contributions to the same final state might produce large event numbers.
We discuss the potential of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) to constraint the four--neutrino mixing schemes favoured by the results of all neutrino oscillations experiments. Our results show that some information on the value of $cos^2(varthet
a_{23}) cos^2(vartheta_{24})$ can be obtained by the first SNO measurement of the CC ratio, while considerable improvement on the knowledge of this mixing will be achievable after the measurement of the NC/CC ratio.
A future high-luminosity $Z$-factory has the potential to investigate lepton flavour violation. Rare decays such as $Z to ell_1^mp ell_2^pm$ can be complementary to low-energy (high-intensity) observables of lepton flavour violation. Here we consider
two extensions of the Standard Model which add to its particle content one or more sterile neutrinos. We address the impact of the sterile fermions on lepton flavour violating $Z$ decays, focusing on potential searches at FCC-ee (TLEP), and taking into account experimental and observational constraints. We show that sterile neutrinos can give rise to contributions to BR($Z to ell_1^mp ell_2^pm$) within reach of the FCC-ee. We discuss the complementarity between a high-luminosity $Z$-factory and low-energy charged lepton flavour violation facilities.
