The proposed KAON factory at the Triumf Laboratory in Vancouver, Canada provides a unique opportunity for high statistics long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. Several possibilities are under active consideration. In this paper we…
We take another look at ``Just-So'' solar neutrino oscillations, characterizing them by the energy $E_{\pi/2}$ at which the distance-varying angle is $\pi/2$, instead of the usual $\Delta m^2$. The rising spectrum recently observed by…
We compute up-down asymmetries for atmospheric neutrino induced electron and muon events in the SuperKamiokande detector for the following neutrino oscillation models: (A) maximally mixed $\nu_{\mu} - \nu_{\tau}$ or $\nu_{\mu} - \nu_s$, (B)…
Superkamiokande atmospheric neutrino data (contained and upward going through $\mu$ events) for 990 days are analyzed in the framework of four neutrinos (three active and one sterile neutrinos) without imposing constraints of Big Bang…
Motivated by the Exact Parity Model and other theories, the hypothesis that each of the known neutrinos oscillates maximally with a sterile partner has been put forward as an explanation of the atmospheric and solar neutrino anomalies. We…
A lower bound on $\Delta m^{2}$ for atmospheric neutrino oscillations can be obtained from the global value of $R$ at a given energy. This bound may be more reliable than one based on the observed isotropy. Some global values of $R$ imply…
The neutrinos of long baseline beams travel inside the Earth's crust where the density is approximately rho = 2.8 g cm^-3. If electron neutrinos participate in the oscillations, matter effects will modify the oscillation probabilities with…
The hierarchy $\Delta m^2_{atm} \gg \Delta m^2_\odot$ and the large $\theta_{23}$ mixing angle, as suggested by neutrino oscillation experiments, can be accounted for by a variety of lepton flavour models. A dichotomy emerges: i) Models…
The Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) experiment uses a beam of muon neutrinos, produced at the J-PARC facility on the east coast of Japan, to study neutrino oscillations driven by the $\Delta m_{\textrm{atm}}^{2}$ mass splitting. A suite of near…
As measurements of the neutrino oscillation parameters improve it is becoming more interesting to study antineutrino oscillations, to investigate CP and CPT violation in the lepton sector and nonstandard matter effects. We present the most…
The atmospheric neutrino-flux is calculated over the wide energy range from 1 GeV to 3,000 GeV for the study of neutrino-physics using the data from underground neutrino-detectors. The uncertainty of atmospheric neutrino-flux is also…
Superkamiokande atmospheric neutrino data for 414 days are analyzed in the framework of three flavor oscillations with mass hierarchy. It is shown that the best fit point is very close to the pure maximal $\nu_\mu\leftrightarrow\nu_\tau$…
It is shown that the high-Delta m^2 part of the large mixing angle MSW solution of the solar neutrino problem is disfavored by the Super-Kamiokande data for low-energy upward-going events. A quantitative bound is obtained in the…
We discuss recent searches for new physics using high-energy atmospheric neutrino data from IceCube, namely sterile neutrinos with masses in the range $\Delta m^2 = 0.01$ eV$^2$ - 10 eV$^2$, and non-standard interactions (NSI) in the…
Motivated by recent results from SuperKamiokande, we study both solar and atmospheric neutrino fluxes in the context of oscillations of the three known neutrinos. We aim at a global view which identifies the various possibilities, rather…

The presence of a tau component in the flux of atmospheric neutrinos inside the Earth, due to flavor oscillations, makes these neutrinos a valuable probe of interactions of the tau neutrino with matter. We study -- analytically and…
