Both electron and its neutrino possess not only the anomalous magnetic moment but also each of the existing types of electric charges and their dipole moments. Any of them can interact with field of emission leading to the elastic…
The derivation of the quasiclassical Lorentz invariant neutrino spin evolution equation taking into account general types of neutrino non-derivative interactions with external fields is presented. We discuss the constraints on the…
Small Dirac masses for neutrinos are natural in models with singlet fermions in large extra dimensions with quantum gravity scale M_{\ast} \sim 1- 100 TeV. We study two modifications of the minimal model in order to obtain the mass scale…
By using a totally antisymmetric spinor field we generalize Elko theory. We compare our proposed theory with traditional totally antisymmetric spinor field theory based on the Dirac equation. As an application of our formalism we comment…
The closed homogeneous and isotropic universe is considered. The bundles of Weyl and Dirac spinors for this universe are explicitly described. Some explicit formulas for the basic fields and for the connection components in stereographic…
We compute the spinor class field for a genus of orders, in a central simple algebra of higher dimension, that are intersections of two maximal orders. In particular, we compute the number of spinor genera in a genus of such orders, as the…
Recently a new mechanism has been proposed to cure the problem of fermion mass hierarchy in the Standard Model (SM) model. In this scenario, all SM charged fermions other than top quark arise from higher dimensional operators involving the…
We explore the physics of regular spinors in the Lounesto classification. These spinors are constructed by introducing two chiral phases. One is a degree of freedom present in choosing the $\gamma^{\mu}$ matrices that leaves the Lorentz…
We consider the simplest extension of the standard electroweak model by one sterile neutrino that allows for neutrino masses and mixing. We find that its leptonic sector contains much less free physical parameters than previously realized.…
The combined requirements, of (i) a natural solution to the fermion mass hierarchy problem and (ii) an explanation of both the atmospheric and solar neutrino problems, lead to an essentially unique picture of neutrino masses and mixing…
This is a review article about neutrino mass and mixing and flavour model building strategies based on modular symmetry. After an introduction to neutrino mass and lepton mixing, we then turn to the main subject of this review, namely a…
We investigate a model with an extra $Z_{2}$ gauge symmetry in the Standard Model. We assume that only the scalars and the leptons carry non-zero charge. The symmetry gives a structure to the mass matrix for the neutrinos. With two extra…
Starting from a complete set of possible parametrisations of the quark-mass matrices that have the maximum number of texture zeros at the grand unification scale, and the Georgi-Jarlskog mass relations, we classify the neutrino spectra with…
The general status of neutrino physics are given. The history of the neutrino, starting from Pauli and Fermi, is presented. The phenomenological V-A theory of the weak interaction and the unified theory of the weak and electromagnetic…
In the framework of such basic principles as local gauge invariance, unification of the weak and electromagnetic interactions and spontaneous symmetry breaking in the Standard Model the most economical and simplest possibilities are…
The fact that neutrinos are massive suggests that the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) might be extended in order to include three gauge-singlet neutrino superfields with Yukawa couplings of the type $H_2 L \nu^c$. We propose to…
We explore alternative descriptions of the charged lepton sector in modular invariant models of lepton masses and mixing angles. In addition to the modulus, the symmetry breaking sector of our models includes ordinary flavons. Neutrino mass…
We propose a radiative neutrino-mass model by introducing 3 generations of fermion pairs $E^{-(N+1)/2} E^{+(N+1)/2}$ and a couple of multi-charged bosonic doublet fields $\Phi_{N/2}, \Phi_{N/2+1}$, where $N=1,3,5,7,9$. We show that the…
The article is a natural continuation of our paper {\em Quantum scalar field in FRW Universe with constant electromagnetic background}, Int. J. Mod. Phys. {\bf A12}, 4837 (1997). We generalize the latter consideration to the case of massive…
Field theory in the presence of extra dimensions has offered interesting solutions to the gauge hierarchy problem, and inspired many attempts to understand the fermion mass generation mechanism. We study the behaviour of a bulk fermion…
