We study the role that the future detection of the neutrino burst from a galactic supernova can play in the reconstruction of the neutrino mass spectrum. We consider all possible 3$\nu$ mass and flavor spectra which describe the solar and…
We consider the supernova shock effects, the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) effects, the collective effects, and the Earth matter effects in the detection of type II supernova neutrinos on the Earth. It is found that the event number of…
The precise knowledge of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes is a key ingredient in the interpretation of the results from any atmospheric neutrino experiment. In the standard atmospheric neutrino data analysis, these fluxes are theoretical…
Supernova neutrinos, which arrive at Earth earlier than light, allow for the earliest determination of the direction of the supernova. The topic of this paper is to study how accurately we can determine the supernova direction. We simulate…
We test several phenomenological scenarios of faster-than-light neutrinos, by fitting to the experimental data from OPERA, MINOS and Fermilab79. Our purpose is to see, from the perspective of the current data, whether or not the speed of…
For non-universal gaugino masses, collider experiments do not provide any lower bound on the mass of the lightest neutralino. We review the supersymmetric parameter space which leads to light neutralinos, $M_\lsp \lsim {\cal O}(1\gev)$, and…

We point out that solar neutrino oscillations with large mixing angle as evidenced in current solar neutrino data have a strong impact on strategies for diagnosing collapse-driven supernova (SN) through neutrino observations. Such…
In a 1996 JRO Fellowship Research Proposal (Los Alamos), the author suggested that neutrino oscillations may provide a powerful indirect energy transport mechanism to supernovae explosions. The principal aim of this addendum is to present…
The definition method of the limit for the neutrino mass of rest by using the analysis of the extreme values of the beta-particles distribution under beta-decay is given. The anomaly of distribution at the end of the curve was analyzed. The…
This report presents a brief review on the experimental measurements of the muon neutrino velocities from the OPERA, Fermilab and MINOS experiments and that of the (anti)-electron neutrino velocities from the supernova SN1987A, and…
Neutrinos remain mysterious. As an example, enhanced self-interactions ($\nu$SI), which would have broad implications, are allowed. At the high neutrino densities within core-collapse supernovae, $\nu$SI should be important, but robust…
We show that fitting linear combinations of low-energy beta-beam spectra to supernova-neutrino energy-distributions reconstructs the response of a nuclear target to a supernova flux in a very accurate way. This allows one to make direct…
The neutrino burst from a galactic supernova can help determine the neutrino mass hierarchy and $\theta_{13}$, and provide crucial information about supernova astrophysics. Here we review our current understanding of the neutrino burst,…
A nascent neutron star resulting from stellar collapse is a prodigious source of neutrinos of all flavors. While the most basic features of this neutrino emission can be estimated from simple considerations, the detailed simulation of the…
Positive evidence for neutrino oscillations is mounting from the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies and the LSND experiment. Accordingly, the neutrino mass differences appear to lie in the sub-eV range and at least some of the mixing…

The $\nu_e-^{56}$Fe cross section is evaluated in the projected quasiparticle random phase approximation (PQRPA). This model solves the puzzle observed in RPA for nuclei with mass around $^{12}$C, because it is the only RPA model that…
Recently estimates have been made of the velocities of pulsars produced by the emission of sterile neutrinos during the first 10 seconds and by active neutrinos during the second 10 seconds after a supernova event reaches thermal…
The neutrino-heating mechanism remains a viable possibility for the cause of the explosion in a wide mass range of supernova progenitors. This is demonstrated by recent two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations with detailed,…
