Neutrino oscillations change when in media in comparison to vacuum oscillations due to the scattering of neutrinos on matter constituents, electrons particularly. This can be easily described by introducing new effective matter mixing…
The light sterile neutrino, if it exists, will give additional contribution to matter effect when active neutrinos propagate through terrestrial matter. In the simplest 3+1 scheme, three more rotation angles and two more CP-violating phases…

We study Dirac neutrinos propagating in rotating background matter. First we derive the Dirac equation for a single massive neutrino in the noninertial frame, where matter is at rest. This equation is written in the effective curved…
We consider main ingredients which determine neutrino transformations in media. Strong transformations relevant for the astrophysics can be due to large depth oscillations, resonance conversion, parametric resonance effect, interplay of…
We show that a criticism made in hep-ph/0610294 against our paper Mod. Phys. Lett. A21, 1769 (2006) has no ground. We confirm that all results of investigations of the so-called ``spin light of neutrino (SL \nu)'' are incorrect because of…

We predict a new mechanism for the spin light of neutrino ($SL\nu$) that can be emitted by a neutrino moving in gravitational fields. This effect is studied on the basis of the quasiclassical equation for the neutrino spin evolution in a…
Some properties of a neutrino may differ significantly depending on whether it is Dirac or Majorana type. The type is determined by the relative size of Dirac and Majorana masses, which may vary if they arise from an oscillating scalar dark…
