It has been recently suggested that the anomalous excess of low-energy electron-like events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment, could be explained by the radiative decay of a heavy sterile neutrino nu_h of the mass around 500 MeV with a…
The simplest explanation for the atmospheric neutrino anomaly is the transition of muon neutrinos and antineutrinos into states of different flavor. Data from the reactor experiment Chooz, and the measurement of the energy and angle…
The majoron, a pseudo-Goldstone boson arising from the spontaneous breaking of global lepton number, is a generic feature of many models intended to explain the origin of the small neutrino masses. In this work, we investigate potential…
If neutrino flavor changes really exist, to say: $\mu$-neutrino oscillating into a sterile neutrino, then, it can be expected that due to neutrino oscillations and non-spherical distortion of the resonance surface induced by the magnetic…
We analyze a thought neutrino oscillation experiment in which neutrinos are produced by electrons colliding with atomic nuclei of a target. The neutrinos are detected by observing charged leptons, which are produced by neutrinos colliding…
Recently an excess of electron neutrino, $\nu_e$, events in a MiniBooNE experiment has been reported. An attempt to explain this anamoly was made in a theoretical analysis by introducing a new light Higgs Boson. In the present work we use a…
The possibilities of detecting high energy neutrinos through inclined showers produced in the atmosphere are addressed with an emphasis on the detection of air showers by arrays of particle detectors. Rates of inclined showers produced by…
The origin of the excess of low-energy events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment remains a mystery, despite exhaustive investigations of backgrounds and a series of null measurements from complementary experiments. One intriguing…
We consider a model where neutrinos interact with weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) as a possible explanation for the production of NuTeV's anomalous dimuon events. This model naturally produces the features reported by NuTeV,…
The solar neutrino anomaly, measurements discrepant from predictions of the Standard Solar Model, has existed for over 30 years. Multiple experiments measuring fluxes from several reactions in the hydrogen fusion chain have added to the…
We study neutrino production, propagation, and oscillations within an extremely magnetized background of finite-temperature nuclear matter. We focus on three particularly interesting cases and identify the astrophysical scenarios where such…
The flux of neutrino-induced muons has been measured with the MACRO detector. Different event topologies have been detected, due to neutrino interactions in the apparatus and in the rock below it. The upward-throughgoing muon sample is the…
We present an inclusive search for anomalous production of single-photon events from neutrino interactions in the MicroBooNE experiment. The search and its signal definition are motivated by the previous observation of a low-energy excess…
We show that the rate of charged-current muon-neutrino events with a hard internal bremsstrahlung photon is consistent with the excess electron-neutrino candidate events reported by the MiniBoone and LSND (decay in flight) experiments. Hard…
The acoustic neutrino detection technique is a promising approach for future large-scale detectors with the aim of measuring the small expected flux of neutrinos at energies in the EeV-range and above. The technique is based on the…
This article reports the status of a $\nu_{\mu} \to \nu_{e}$ oscillation search in MiniBooNE (Booster Neutrino Experiment) experiment. If an appearance signal is observed, it will imply Physics Beyond the Standard Model such as the…
Neutrinos escaping from a core collapse supernova a few seconds after bounce pass through the shock wave, where they may encounter one or more resonances corresponding to $\Delta m^2_{\rm atm}$. The neutrino mass eigenstates in matter may…
Neutron noise in nuclear power reactors refers to the small fluctuations around the average neutron flux at steady state resulting from time-dependent perturbations inside the core. The neutron noise equations in the frequency domain can be…
Neutrino-neutrino scattering could have a large secret component that would turn neutrinos within a supernova (SN) core into a self-coupled fluid. Neutrino transport within the SN core, emission from its surface, expansion into space, and…
