SUMMARY:Neutrinos\, Quantum Gravity and the Big Questions - New Ideas 
 for New Data\, NPAC (Nuclear/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\, Heinrich PĂ
 ¤s\, TU Dortmund University
DESCRIPTION:Neutrinos are perfect probes of quantum gravity. The parti
 cles’ weak interactions allow to preserve quantum coherence for very
  long timespans\, and neutrino telescopes have started to collect data
  of neutrinos at extreme energies that have travelled extra-galactic d
 istances. Moreover\, the expected breaking of global symmetries such a
 s lepton number in quantum gravity may induce neutrino Majorana masses
 . The talk discusses how new ideas about quantum gravity could imply e
 xotic properties or phenomena in the neutrino sector\, such as altered
  dispersion relations\, quantum-gravitational decoherence\, or UV/IR m
 ixing that may be linked to the big open questions of particle physics
  and cosmology like the nature of dark matter or the electroweak hiera
 rchy problem.
