SUMMARY:Neutrino Advances and Developments in Finite Group Models\, Th
 eory Seminar (High Energy/Cosmology)\, David A. Eby\, Vanderbilt Unive
 rsity
DESCRIPTION:Neutrino discoveries over the last decade and a half have 
 provided the first definite observation of particle physics beyond the
  standard model. The ramifications of these results are continuing to 
 impact the theory community\, as its members struggle to adapt old mod
 els and develop new ones. Finite group models have been particularly s
 uccessful at providing explanations for new neutrino behavior. Our wor
 k\, titled Binary Tetrahedral Flavor Symmetry or the TaEuroTM Model\, 
 endeavors to bridge the quark and lepton families in a single coherent
  system by means of additional Higgs-like particles. This theory provi
 des testable predictions for neutrino mixing\, quark mixing\, and dark
  matter. Where possible\, we evaluate these predictions against curren
 t experimental evidence and find agreement with the atmospheric and re
 actor neutrino mixing angles\, an accurate prediction of the Cabibbo a
 ngle\, and a dark matter candidate outside of current limits. Taken to
 gether\, we believe these results speak to the promise of finite group
 s and flavor symmetries to accurately approximate nature.
