The neutrino community is convinced that if the LMA solution is indeed correct, the prospects for next-generation, long-baseline neutrino experiments are very exciting. In this work we will argue that the prospects are not less exiting if…
Models with three active neutrinos and one sterile neutrino can naturally account for maximal oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos, explain the solar neutrino deficit, and accommodate the results of the LSND experiment. The models predict…

The current case for atmospheric $\nu_\mu$ oscillations into active or sterile neutrinos is reviewed. It is argued that neither the study of neutral current events at Super-Kamiokande, nor the information obtained from future long baseline…
I concentrate on two topics. One is techniques to distinguish amongst various oscillation scenarios from atmospheric neutrino data; and the other is the Borexino solar neutrino detector and its capabilities.
This article presents an overview of neutrino physics research, with highlights on the physics goals, results and interpretations of the current neutrino experiments and future directions and program. It is not meant to be a comprehensive…
Recently it was suggested that two very different mass-squared differences play a role in atmospheric neutrino oscillations. The larger of these also accounts for the LSND result and the smaller of these also drives the solar neutrino…

The present uncertainties in the knowledge of the neutrino cross sections for E_nu \sim 1 GeV, that is in the energy range most important for atmospheric and long baseline accelerator neutrinos, are large. These uncertainties do not play a…
We review the current status of the solar neutrino oscillation parameters. We discuss the conditions under which measurements from future solar neutrino experiments would determine the oscillation parameters precisely. Finally we expound…
The effects of matter density fluctuation in long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments are studied. Effects of short wavelength fluctuations are in general irrelevant. Effects of long wavelength fluctuations must be checked on a…
Solar and atmospheric neutrino data require physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The simplest, most generic, but not yet unique, interpretation of the data is in terms of neutrino oscillations. I summarize the results of…
This paper discusses evidence for neutrino oscillations obtained from measurements with solar neutrinos and reactor neutrinos.
The atmospheric muon neutrino deficit, which was possible evidence of $\nu_\mu \leftrightarrow \nu_\tau$ oscillation, was reported by the Kamiokande experiment from 1988. Many experimental efforts were made to examine the Kamiokande…
