Expressions for neutrino oscillations contain a high degree of symmetry, but typical forms for the oscillation probabilities mask these symmetries of the oscillation parameters. We elucidate the $2^7$ parameter symmetries of the vacuum…
After discussing alternative scenarios for the origins of the electroweak symmetry breaking, I briefly review the experimental status of the Standard Model. I explore further both the hints for, and constraints on, supposing that that a…
In a simple PT-symmetric model we demonstrate that and how the violation of a reflection symmetry $E_j=-E_{N+1-j}$ of the spectrum (called "self-duality" by Dunne and Shifman) is connected with the loss of the simplicity of the shape of the…
We consider the oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos in the earth in the three-neutrino scheme with a $\Delta m^2$ hierarchy and a small admixture of the electron neutrino in the heavy mass eigenstate characterized by the mixing angle…
A symmetry violation model is considered for a system that can spontaneously choose between identical states which differ from each other only in weak properties (R-L). Such mirror symmetry allows reproduction of observed qualitative…
We investigate classical spin systems in $d\geq 1$ dimensions whose transfer operator commutes with the action of a nonamenable unitary representation of a symmetry group, here ${\rm SO}(1,N)$; these systems may alternatively be interpreted…
We consider lepton-neutron (and lepton-antineutron) bound states and resonances which appear due to spin-spin, spin-orbital interactions,neutron polarization by muon. Our analis is also true for any system which include one charge and one…
Measurements of various features of the fluxes of atmospheric and solar neutrinos have provided evidence for neutrino oscillations and therefore for neutrino masses and mixing. We review the phenomenology of neutrino oscillations in vacuum…
Using Density Matrix renormalization group (DMRG), we study the ground state properties of spin one-half fermions and scalar bosons in the soft-core limit, with weak s-wave inter and intra species interactions. We considered the system…
A simple but useful guide for understanding the structure of light nuclei is presented. It is based on counting the number of interacting pairs in different spin-isospin (S,T) states for a given spatial symmetry, and estimating the overall…
The 1:N mean motion resonances with Neptune are of particular interest because they have two asymmetric resonance islands, where the distribution of trapped objects may bear important clues to the history of the Solar System. To explore the…
We recently determined the exact fixed point equations and the spaces of solutions of the two-dimensional $RP^{N-1}$ and $CP^{N-1}$ models using scale invariant scattering theory. Here we discuss subtleties hidden in some solutions and…
The phenomenology of massive neutrinos -- flavour mixing in the lepton sector causing oscillations between different neutrino-types along their propagation over macroscopic distances in vacuum -- aims at relating observable quantities…
We study the interplay between charge symmetry breaking and renormalization in the NN system for s-waves. We find a set of universality relations which disentangle explicitly the known long distance dynamics from low energy parameters and…
We compute the one-loop effects on the neutrino propagation through matter induced by virtual supersymmetric particles. We show that, in the minimal version of the supersymmetric standard model, a non-degeneracy between sleptons of the…
The Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics was tested to great precision by experiments at the highest energy colliders (LEP, Hera, Tevatron, SLAC). The only missing particle is the Higgs boson, which will be the first particle to be…
We investigate the interactions of discrete zero-form and one-form global symmetries in (1+1)d theories. Focus is put on the interactions that the symmetries can have on each other, which in this low dimension result in 2-group symmetries…
We study the ground-state density profile of a spin-orbit coupled $f=2$ spinor condensate in a quasi-one-dimensional trap. The Hamiltonian of the system is invariant under time reversal but not under parity. We identify different parity-…
The $\mu\nu$SSM has been proposed to solve simultaneously the $\mu$-problem of the MSSM and explain current neutrino data. The model breaks lepton number as well as R-parity. In this paper we study the phenomenology of this proposal…
We review how the phenomena of inverse symmetry breaking (and symmetry nonrestoration) may arise in the context of relativistic as well as nonrelativistic multi-scalar field theories. We discuss how the consideration of thermal effects on…
