Neutrino oscillations occur within the frame of the Standard Model, assuming that a neutrino is composed of a left handed and a right handed mass less fermion. Neutrino oscillations proceed via the 4-component Higgs field as intermediate…
The predictions of the atmospheric nu event rates are affected by significant uncertainties, however the evidence for the `disappearance' of nu_mu's and antinu_mu's obtained by SK and other underground detectors is robust and cannot be…
