The recent global analysis of three-flavor neutrino oscillation data indicates that the {\it normal} neutrino mass ordering is favored over the inverted one at the $3\sigma$ level, and the best-fit values of the largest neutrino mixing…
The neutrino mass hierarchy, presently unknown, is a powerful discriminator among various classes of unification theories. We show that the $\nu_{\mu} + \bar{\nu}_\mu$ survival rate in atmospheric events can provide a novel method of…
We construct a neutrino mass matrix $M_{\nu}$ via a seesaw mechanism whith perturbed invariant under a cyclic permutation by introducing one parameter $\delta$ into the diagonal elements of $M_{\nu}$ with assumption that trace of the…
We examine the possibility of determining the neutrino mass hierarchy in the limit \theta_{13} = 0 using atmospheric neutrinos as the source. In this limit, in which \theta_{13} driven matter effects are absent, independent measurements of…
A lower bound on $\Delta m^{2}$ for atmospheric neutrino oscillations can be obtained from the global value of $R$ at a given energy. This bound may be more reliable than one based on the observed isotropy. Some global values of $R$ imply…
