Abstract
The splitting of neutrinos, a viable reaction for superluminal neutrinos, is shown to have phenomenologically relevant consequences if one accepts the recent OPERA results for the velocity of neutrinos. Neutrino splitting can be used to put strong constraints on the energy dependence of the velocity of propagation of neutrinos in a general analysis of modifications of relativistic kinematics and to propose observable effects due to the departures from special relativity in neutrino physics.
