I report the analysis performed on fermion masses and mixing, including neutrino mixing, within the context of a model with hierarchical radiative mass generation mechanism for light charged fermions, mediated by exotic scalar particles at…
We find an intriguing relation between neutrino and charged fermion masses, $|m_{\nu_3^{}}^2- m_{\nu_1^{}}^2| : (m_{\nu_2^{}}^2- m_{\nu_1^{}}^2):: V_{tb}^4 m_\tau^2 m_b^2/m_t^2 : V_{cs}^4 m_\mu^2 m_s^2/m_c^2$. We further indicate this…
The combined requirements, of (i) a natural solution to the fermion mass hierarchy problem and (ii) an explanation of both the atmospheric and solar neutrino problems, lead to an essentially unique picture of neutrino masses and mixing…
A generic form of the supersymmetric SM naturally gives rise to the lepton number violating neutrino masses and mixings, without the need for extra superfields beyond the minimal spectrum. Hence, SUSY can be consider the origin of beyond SM…
We propose a new action principle to be associated with a noncommutative space $(\Ac ,\Hc ,D)$. The universal formula for the spectral action is $(\psi ,D\psi) + \Trace (\chi (D /$ $\Lb))$ where $\psi$ is a spinor on the Hilbert space,…
Several new and interesting aspects of neutrino oscillations in a magnetic field are considered: 1) We develop a standard usually used approach to the neutrino spin oscillations in the neutrino mass basis and obtain the effective neutrino…
In this lecture we review some of the basic properties of neutrinos, in particular their mass and the oscillation behavior. First we discuss how to describe the neutrino mass. Then, under the assumption that neutrinos are massive and mixed,…
We propose a neutrino model in which neutrino masses are generated at one loop level and three right-handed fermions have non-trivial charges under $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry in no conflict with anomaly cancellation. After the…
The Standard Model includes neutrinos as massless particles, but neutrino oscillations showed that neutrinos are not massless. A simple extension of adding gauge singlet fermions to the particle spectrum allows normal Yukawa mass terms for…
A brief review of a neutrino oscillations effect in an external magnetic field and matter currents is given. An ultra-relativistic neutrino propagation in moving external media is investigated. We have found a new spin operator which…
Assuming three light neutrinos and the see-saw mechanism we present a semiquantitative model of fermion masses based on (SUSY) SU(5) and abelian horizontal charges. A good description of the observed pattern of quark and lepton masses is…
New effects related to refraction of neutrinos in different media are reviewed and implication of the effects to neutrino mass and mixing are discussed. Patterns of neutrino masses and mixing implied by existing hints/bounds are described.…
We emphasize the central role played by the spectral function in the description of hadrons in matter and discuss the applicability of the quasiparticle concept to the propagation of hadrons in dense nuclear matter. Theoretical and…
We consider a minimal extension of the Standard Model which advocates a dark neutrino sector charged under a hidden $U(1)^\prime$. We show that neutrino masses can arise radiatively in this model. The observed values are compatible with a…
In this talk I review the present status of neutrino masses and mixing and some of their implications for particle physics phenomenology. I first discuss the minimum extension of the Standard Model of particle physics required to…
The fundamental properties of the lepton sector include the neutrino masses and flavor mixings. Both are difficult to observe because of the extremely small neutrino masses and neutrino-matter cross sections. In these lectures, we focus on…
We have built a renormalizable $U(1)_X$ model with a $\Sigma (18)\times Z_4$ symmetry, whose spontaneous breaking yields the observed SM fermion masses and fermionic mixing parameters. The tiny masses of the light active neutrinos are…
There exist field theory models where the fermionic energy-momentum tensor contains a term proportional to g_{\mu\nu}\bar{\Psi}\Psi which can be responsible for a dark matter to dark energy transmutation. We study some cosmological aspects…
The turn of the 21st century witnessed a sudden shift in our fundamental understanding of particle physics. While the minimal Standard Model predicts that neutrino masses are exactly zero, the discovery of neutrino oscillations proved the…
