There exists a need to address and resolve the growing evidence for short-baseline neutrino oscillations and the possible existence of sterile neutrinos. Such non-standard particles require a mass of $\sim 1$ eV/c$^2$, far above the mass…

The possibility off measuring for the first time neutrino-nuclei coherent scattering has been recently discussed by several experimental collaborations. It is shown that such a measurement may be very sensitive to non-standard interactions…

Models with three active neutrinos and one sterile neutrino can naturally account for maximal oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos, explain the solar neutrino deficit, and accommodate the results of the LSND experiment. The models predict…

We formulate a set of naturalness criteria for sterile neutrinos (\nu') to be light, needed for reconciling the LSND neutrino anomaly with the other neutrino data. A light sterile neutrino becomes as natural as the light active neutrinos if…
