We study a scale invariant inverse seesaw model that radiatively generates the electroweak scale, the Standard Model (SM) neutrino masses, and stabilizes the electroweak vacuum. Previous studies have noted that the SM Higgs potential and…
We present a new realization of inverted neutrino mass hierarchy based on $S_3 \times {\cal U}(1)$ flavor symmetry. In this scenario, the deviation of the solar oscillation angle from $\pi/4$ is correlated with the value of $\theta_{13}$,…
There are strong indications for neutrino masses and mixings in the data on solar neutrinos as well as in the observed deficit of muon neutrinos from the atmosphere. The COBE data and other analysis of the large scale structure in the…
In this work, we try to explain the neutrino mass and mixing data radiatively at three-loop by extending the standard model (SM) with two charged singlet scalars and three right handed (RH) neutrinos. Here, the lightest RH neutrino is a…
We describe a class of supersymmetric models in which neutrinos are kept light by an R-symmetry. In supergravity, R-symmetry must be broken to allow for a small cosmological constant after supersymmetry breaking. In the class of models…
In the framework of the Standard Model with lepton mixing the radiative decay $\nu_i \rightarrow \nu_j \gamma$ of a neutrino of high ($E_\nu \sim 100 \, GeV$) and super-high ($E_\nu \ge 1 \, TeV$) energy is investigated in the Coulomb field…

The recent evidence for neutrino oscillations stimulate us to discuss again the problem of fermion masses and mixings in gauge theories. In the standard model, several forms for quark mass matrices are equivalent. They become ansatze within…
Neutrino masses and the number of light neutrino species can be tested in a variety of laboratory experiments and also can be constrained by particle astrophysics and precision cosmology. A conflict between these various results could be an…
The existence of neutrino mass and mixing is a strong pointer towards physics beyond the standard model. An overview of the possibility of having neutrino masses in supersymmetric theories is attempted here. Some of the recent works…
We examine in detail the neutrino masses and mixing patterns in an extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with three gauge-singlet neutrinos and R-parity violation. The Majorana masses for the gauge-singlet neutrinos as well…
This is a review article about neutrino mass models, particularly see-saw models involving three active neutrinos which are capable of describing both the atmospheric neutrino oscillation data, and the large mixing angle MSW solar solution,…
We consider the problem of neutrino masses and mixing in the framework of flipped SU(5). The right-handed neutrino mass, generated through the operation of a seesaw mechanism by a sector of gauge singlets, leads naturally, at a subsequent…
$\mu\nu$SSM is an $R$-parity violating non-minimal supersymmetric model which uses right chiral neutrino superfields to solve the $\mu$-problem. The $R$-parity violation together with a TeV scale seesaw mechanism using right handed…
We discuss the neutrino oscillations, using texture zero mass matrices for the leptons. The reactor mixing angle $\theta^{}_{l}$ is calculated. The ratio of the masses of two neutrinos is determined by the solar mixing angle. We can…
Lepton mixing can originate from the breaking of a flavor symmetry in different ways in the neutrino and the charged lepton sector. We propose an extension of this framework which allows to connect the mixing parameters with masses, and…
We propose a scheme in that the masses of the heavier leptons obey seesaw type relations. The light lepton masses, except the electron and the electron neutrino ones are generated by one loop level radiative corrections. We work in a…
Many unified models predict two large neutrino mixing angles, with the charged lepton mixing angles being small and quark-like, and the neutrino masses being hierarchical. Assuming this, we present simple approximate analytic formulae…
We study the effect of radiative corrections on the structure of neutrino mass matrix. We analyze the renormalization of the matrix from the electroweak scale $m_Z$ to the scale $m_0$ at which the effective operator that gives masses to…
One can describe cosmological relic neutrinos by adding Lagrange multipliers to the Standard Model Lagrangian for them. The two possible Lagrange multipliers are a chemical potential, which fixes the mean neutrino/anti-neutrino asymmetry,…
