High precision measurements of the parity-violating asymmetry in polarized electron scattering from nuclei can be used to extract information on nuclear and nucleon structure or to determine Standard Model couplings and higher-order…
The problem of generating light neutrinos within supersymmetric models is discussed. It is shown that the hierarchy of scales induced by supersymmetry breaking can give rise to suppression factors of the correct order of magnitude to…
We study the possible impact of the neutrino oscillation which could be induced by a tiny violation of equivalence principle (VEP) for neutrinos emitted from supernova driven by gravitational collapse. Due to the absence of any significant…
We present neutrino mass matrices which predict the atmospheric neutrino mixing to be almost maximal, $\sin^2 2\theta_{atm}>0.999$, as well as the large solar neutrino mixing, $8/9>\sin^2 2\theta_{sol}>0.87$, and the large CP violation (the…
Based on the experimental discovery that the mass-square of neutrino is negative, a quantum theory for superluminal neutrino is proposed. Two Weyl equations coupled together via a mass term respecting the maximum parity violation lead to a…
We derive the energy asymmetry given the proto-neutronstar during the time when the neutrino sphere is near the surface of the proto-neutron star, using the modified URCA process. The electrons produced with the anti-neutrinos are in Landau…
Supersymmetry offers a cold dark matter candidate, provided that lepton number is {\em not violated by an odd number of units}. On the other hand, lepton number violation by even (two) units gives us an attractive mechanism of neutrino mass…
The origin of parity violation in physics is still unknown. At the present time, it is introduced in the theory by requiring that the SU(2) subgroup entering the description of interactions involves the left components. In the present…
R-parity-violating supersymmetry with a conserved baryon number B provides a framework for particle physics with lepton number (L) violating interactions. Two important probes of the L-violating physics are neutrino masses and…
The symmetry between quarks and leptons suggests that neutrinos should have mass. As embodied in the grand unified theory SO(10) this yields masses that can only be detected by neutrino oscillations. Such oscillations could be very…
In supersymmetric models with R-parity violating interactions, sneutrinos may be produced as $s$-channel resonances at $\mu^+ \mu^-$ colliders. We demonstrate that, for R-parity violating couplings as low as $10^{-4}$, sneutrinos can be…
A very massive star with a carbon-oxygen core in the range of $64$ M$_{\odot}<M_{\mathrm{CO}}<133$ M$_{\odot}$ is expected to undergo a very different kind of explosion known as a pair instability supernova. Pair instability supernovae are…
Baryon asymmetry of the universe can be generated by new sources of $CP$ violation intrinsic in supersymmetric extension of the standard model. This scenario predicts the neutron electric dipole moment to be not much smaller than its…
Partial Split Supersymmetry with violation of R-parity as a model for neutrino masses is explored. It is shown that at the one-loop level the model can give predictions that are in agreement with all present experimental values for the…
We re-examine neutrino oscillations in exact parity models. Previously it was shown in a specific model that large neutrino mixing angles result. We show here that this is a general result of neutrino mixing in exact parity models provided…
Neutrino mass spectrum is reanalyzed in supersymmetric models with explicit trilinear $R$ violation. Models in this category are argued to provide simultaneous solution to the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies. It is shown…
We analyze the low energy features of a supersymmetric standard model where the anomaly--induced contributions to the soft parameters are dominant in a scenario with bilinear $R$--parity violation. This class of models leads to mixings…
Neutrinos produced during the collapse of a massive star are trapped in a nuclear medium (the proto-neutron star). Typically, neutrino energies (10-100 MeV) are of the order of nuclear giant resonances energies. Hence, neutrino propagation…
We investigate analytically the evolution of the primordial neutrino asymmetry caused by active-sterile neutrino oscillations. In particular, we concentrate on possible chaotic oscillations of the asymmetry. For a certain range of…
R parity violating trilinear couplings $\lambda'_{1jk}$ of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) are constrained from the limit on the electron neutrino mass. Strong limits on these couplings follow from the earlier neglected…
