Driven by new experimental results, in the latest period several new neutrino oscillation experiments have been proposed. I will outline the main ideas behind the different proposals, in particular concerning atmospheric neutrinos and…
Recently Belle observed two charged bottomonium-like states, Zb(10610) and Zb(10650), that are produced in the Upsilon(5S) -> Zb pi transitions and that decay to Upsilon(nS) pi (n=1,2,3) and h_b(mP) pi (m=1,2) channels. The masses of these…
I discuss some recent discoveries in the spectroscopy of the charmonium-like resonances, and some of their theoretical interpretations are reviewed.
Observational manifestations of possible breaking of spin-statistics relation for neutrinos are considered. It is argued that bosonic neutrinos may form cosmological cold dark matter, improve agreement of BBN predictions with observations,…
The article describes the research program pursued by the TEXONO Collaboration towards an experiment to observe coherent scattering between neutrinos and the nucleus at the power reactor. The motivations of studying this process are…

Very recently, the LUNA collaboration has reported a new measurement of the $d+p\to {}^{3}\text{He}+\gamma$ reaction rate, which plays an important role in the prediction of the primordial deuterium abundance at the time of BBN. This new…
By using most of the present CMB and LSS measurements and the BBN constraints on the primordial helium abundance, Y_p, we set bounds on the radiation content of the Universe and neutrino properties. We consider lepton asymmetric…
In this decade, there are huge efforts to explore B-meson decays, which offer interesting probes to test the quark-flavour structure of the Standard Model and to search for signals of new physics. Exciting new perspectives for these studies…
The current status of big bang nucleosynthesis is summarized. Particular attention is paid to recent observations of He4 and Li7 and their systematic uncertainties. Be and B are also discussed in connection to recent Li7 observations and…
In this talk I will summarize the latest experimental results from the four solar neutrino experiments and discuss what this means for the flux of $^7Be$ and $^8B$ neutrinos. The implications for the solar models including the new versions…
The last parameter of big-bang nucleosynthesis, the baryon density, is being pinned down by measurements of the deuterium abundance in high-redshift hydrogen clouds. When it is determined, it will fix the primeval light-element abundances.…
The inclusion of heavy neutral leptons (right-handed neutrinos) to the Standard Model (SM) particle content is one of the best motivated ways to account for the observed neutrino masses and flavor mixing. The modification of the charged and…
