A striking feature of the timelike nucleon electromagnetic form factors, investigated in $e^+e^- \to N\bar N$ annihilation reactions, is the modulation by local structures of small magnitude and oscillatory form, showing up above $N\bar N$…
Effects of the dense matter can induce the neutrino decay even if neutrinos are stable in vacuum. This is due to coherent interactions with matter which lead to energy level-splitting between the neutrino and antineutrino states and thereby…

Power-spectrum analyses of the decay rates of certain nuclides reveal (at very high confidence levels) an annual oscillation and periodicities that may be attributed to solar rotation and to solar r-mode oscillations. A comparison of…
We show that ordinary and radiative muon capture impose stringent constraints on sterile neutrino properties. In particular, we consider a sterile neutrino with a mass between 40 to $80 {\rm MeV}$ that has a large mixing with the muon…
Experimental limits on neutrino magnetic moments remain several orders of magnitude above the predictions of the Standard Model; therefore, any future detection would provide unambiguous evidence for new physics. In models with Dirac…
We present a new channel of the neutrinoless double beta decay. In this scenario neutrinos not only oscillate inside the nucleus but also interact with an external non-uniform magnetic field. We assume that the field rotates about the…
Gamma radiation associated with radon decay exhibits variations in both time of year and time of day. The annual oscillation has its maximum value in June, suggestive of a galactic influence. Measurements made at midnight show strong…

If the technology for muon storage rings one day permits sensitivity to precession at the order of $10^{-8}$ Hz, the local gravitational field of Earth can be a dominant contribution to the precession of the muon, which, if ignored, can…
