A review of the recent achievements in high energy neutrino physics and, partly, neutrino astrophysics is presented. It is argued that experiments with high energy neutrinos of natural origin can be used for a search of new physics effects beyond the electroweak scale.

Ideas of deep underground and deep underwater detection of high-energy cosmic neutrinos were firstly suggested by Moisey Markov in the end of 50th. Frederic Reines was one of those who first detected high-energy atmospheric neutrinos in underground experiments in the middle of 60th (as well as low energy reactor neutrinos 10 years earlier!). Markov and Reines closely collaborated in 70th – 80th in discussion of alternative techniques for large-scale neutrino telescopes. Some events of 50 – 80 years relating to the development of a new branch of Astronomy – the High-Energy Neutrino Astronomy, in which Markov and Reines took part, were described in my talk at ARENA Workshop. Below the first part of my talk at the Workshop is presented describing discussions and meetings the neutrino physics and astrophysics relating to the period 1957-1962 when I was Markov's student and later post-graduated student.

High-energy neutrino-nucleus interactions are discussed by considering neutrino-oscillation experiments and ultra-high-energy cosmic neutrino interactions. The largest systematic error for the current neutrino oscillation measurements comes from the neutrino-nucleus interaction part, and its accurate understanding is essential for high-precision neutrino physics, namely for studying CP violation in the lepton sector. Depending on neutrino beam energies, quasi-elastic, resonance, Regge, or/and deep inelastic scattering (DIS) processes contribute to the neutrino cross section. It is desirable to have a code to calculate the neutrino-nucleus cross section in any kinematical range by combining various theoretical descriptions. On the other hand, the IceCube collaboration started obtaining cross section data up to the 1015 eV range, so that it became necessary to understand ultra-high-energy neutrino interactions beyond the artificial lepton-accelerator energy range. For future precise neutrino physics including the CP measurement, it is also necessary to understand accurate nuclear corrections. The current status is explained for nuclear corrections in DIS structure functions. The possibility is also discussed to find gravitational sources within nucleons and nuclei, namely matrix elements of quark-gluon energy-momentum tensor. They could be probed by neutrino interactions without replying on direct ultra-weak “gravitational interactions” with high-intensity neutrino beams, possibly at a future neutrino factory, by using techniques of hadron tomography.
