A non-minimal approximation for effective masses of light and heavy neutrinos in the framework of a type-I seesaw mechanism with three generations of sterile Majorana neutrinos which recover the symmetry between quarks and leptons is…
The recent neutrino data seem to favor two large and one small mixing angles and a hierarchy of their squared mass differences. We discuss these within the context of hierarchical neutrino masses. We show that this scheme suggests a…
Best-fit values of recent global analyzes of neutrino data imply large solar neutrino mixing, vanishing U_{e3} and a non-maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing angle theta_{23}. We show that these values emerge naturally by the hypothesis of…
We build a model to describe neutrinos based on strict hierarchy, incorporating as much as possible, the latest known data, for $\Delta_{sol}$ and $\Delta_{atm}$, and for the mixing angles determined from neutrino oscillation experiments,…
It is shown that the well established and confirmed neutrino experimental results, such as atmospheric neutrino oscillations and solar neutrino deficit, can be easily explained for "democratic" left-handed Majorana neutrinos, taking into…
We advocate a new approach to study models of fermion masses and mixings, namely anarchy proposed in hep-ph/9911341. In this approach, we scan the O(1) coefficients randomly. We argue that this is the correct approach when the fundamental…
This paper is withdrawn because its results have been previously reported in arxiv hep-th/0507200.
Using radiative correction and seesaw mechanism,we derive analytic formulas for neutrino masses in SUSY unified theories exhibiting, for the first time, a new hierarchial relation among them.The new hierarchy is found to be quite…
Recently the evidence of the neutrinoless double $\beta$ ($0\nu \beta\beta$) decay has been announced. This means that neutrinos are Majorana particles and their mass hierarchy is forced to certain patterns in the diagonal basis of charged…
Until we can more carefully assess the validity of the physical assumptions made we withdraw this paper.
The Dirac masses of neutrinos can exhibit a strong hierarchy even if the Majorana masses of the right-handed neutrinos are degenerate and the hierarchy of the mass scales governing the oscillations of solar and atmospheric neutrinos is…
We study the neutrino mass matrix in supersymmetric models in which the quark and charged lepton mass hierarchies and also the suppression of baryon or lepton number violating couplings are all explained by horizontal $U(1)_X$ symmetry. It…
This paper has been withdrawn because of serious errors.
We demonstrate that the detection of shock modulations of the neutrino spectra from a galactic core-collapse supernova is sufficient to obtain a high significance determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy if the supernova event is…
We study the possibility to perform neutrino oscillation tomography and to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy in kilometer-scale ice Cerenkov detectors by means of the theta13-driven matter effects which occur during the propagation of…
It is found that the seesaw mechanism not only explain the smallness of neutrino masses but also account for the large mixing angles simultaneously, even if the unification of the neutrino Dirac mass matrix with that of up-type quark sector…
A neutrino mass matrix is considered under conditions of a CP invariance and a small reactor mixing $\theta_{13}$ angle. Absolute mass values for three neutrinos are evaluated for normal and inverted hierarchy spectra on the ground of data…
We follow a minimalistic approach to neutrino masses, by introducing a single heavy singlet $N$ into the standard model (or supersymmetric standard model) with a heavy Majorana mass $M$, which couples as a single right-handed neutrino in a…
The recent progress in establishing the existence of finite neutrino masses and mixing between generations of neutrinos has been remarkable, if not astounding. The combined results from studies of atmospheric neutrinos, solar neutrinos, and…
In this talk we will discuss the physics reach of the atmospheric neutrino data collected by a future megaton-class neutrino detector. First we will discuss the potentialities of atmospheric neutrinos on general basis, presenting our…
