We discuss if one can verify the MSW effect in neutrino oscillations at a high confidence level in long-baseline experiments. We demonstrate that for long enough baselines at neutrino factories, the matter effect sensitivity is, as opposed…
The corrections to neutrino mixing parameters in the presence of matter of constant density are calculated systematically as series expansions in terms of the mass hierarchy $\dm{21}/\dm{31}$. The parameter mapping obtained is then used to…
Measurements of CP--violating observables in neutrino oscillation experiments have been studied in the literature as a way to determine the CP--violating phase in the mixing matrix for leptons. Here we show that such observables also probe…
We examine how large violation of CP and T is allowed in long base line neutrino experiments. When we attribute only the atmospheric neutrino anomaly to neutrino oscillation we may have large CP violation effect. When we attribute both the…
The current laws of physics do not explain the observed imbalance of matter and antimatter in the universe. Sakharov proposed that an explanation would require the violation of CP symmetry between matter and antimatter. The only CP…
This PhD thesis deals with the current experimental hint for large CP violation in the leptonic sector. We first quantify its global statistical significance, by combining the results from relevant neutrino oscillation experiments. As the…
A realistic medium- or long-baseline neutrino experiment may suffer from terrestrial matter effects which are likely to contaminate the genuine T-violating asymmetry between \nu_\alpha \to \nu_\beta and \nu_\beta \to \nu_\alpha…
We introduce the commutators of lepton mass matrices to describe the phenomenon of lepton flavor mixing, and establish their relations to the effective Hamiltonians responsible for the propagation of Dirac and Majorana neutrinos. The…
Matter density uncertainties can affect the measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters at future neutrino factory experiments, such as the measurements of the mixing parameters $\theta_{13}$ and $\deltacp$. We compare different…
We study the possibility of measuring T (time reversal) violation in a future long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. By assuming a neutrino factory as a staging scenario of a muon collider at the J-PARC site, we find that the…
The leptonic CP-violating phase $\delta$ can be measured with a Neutrino Factory with $2 \times 10^{20} $ useful muons per year, if the solar neutrino problem is solved by the LMA-MSW solution, with $\Delta m_{12}^2 \ge 2 \times 10^{-5}$…
Different future long baseline neutrino oscillation setups are discussed and the remarkable potential for very precise measurements of mass splittings and mixing angles is shown. Furthermore it will be possible to make precise tests of MSW…
One of the fundamental parameters entering neutrino oscillation framework is the leptonic CP phase $\delta_{13}$ and its measurement is an important goal of the planned long baseline experiments. It should be noted that ordinary matter…
The existence of CP-violation in the leptonic sector is one of the most important issues for modern science. Neutrino physics is a key to the solution of this problem. JUNO (under construction) is the near future of neutrino physics.…
Matter effects in neutrino propagation translate into effective parameters for the oscillation and fake CP- and CPT-odd quantities, even in a scenario, such as $\Delta_{12}=0$, where no genuine CP violation is present. This fact seems to…
We investigate the $\nu_e \to \nu_{\mu}$ oscillation in the framework of three generations when neutrinos pass through the earth. The oscillation probability is represented by the form, $P(\nu_e \to \nu_\mu)=A\cos \delta+B\sin \delta+C$ in…
We show that the simultaneous determination of the leptonic CP-odd phase $\delta$ and the angle $\theta_{13}$ from the subleading transitions $\nu_e\to\nu_\mu$ and ${\bar\nu}_e\to{\bar\nu}_\mu$ results generically, at fixed neutrino energy…

Future experiments such as SHiP and high-intensity $e^+ e^-$ colliders will have a superb sensitivity to heavy Majorana neutrinos with masses below $M_Z$. We show that the measurement of the mixing to electrons and muons of one such state…
