An updated analysis of all available neutrino oscillation evidence in Solar experiments including the latest SNO ES,CC and NC data (254d live time, NaCL enhanced efficiency) is presented. We obtain, for the fraction of active oscillating…
We point out that the length scale associated with the MSW effect is the radius of the Earth. Therefore to verify matter enhancement of neutrino oscillations, it will be necessary to study neutrinos passing through the Earth. For the…
Assuming three flavour neutrino mixing takes place in vacuum, we investigate the possibility that the solar $\nu_e$ take part in MSW transitions in the Sun due to $\Delta m^2_{31} \sim (10^{-7} - 10^{-4})~eV^2$, followed by long wave length…
A new more rigorous and accurate method for treating neutrino oscillations in the context of the MSW effect in a medium is proposed. This leads to a new type of resonance condition which for small mixing angles puts rather stringent…

We discuss the possibility for matter effects in the three-neutrino oscillations of the atmospheric nu_e (bar{nu}_e) and nu_mu (bar{nu}_mu), driven by one neutrino mass squared difference, |Delta m2_{31}| >> Delta m2_{21}, to be observable…

The solar neutrino problem is reviewed and the possible vacuum oscillation and MSW solutions of the problem are considered.
An approximation that is often used in fits to reactor and atmospheric neutrino data and in some studies of future neutrino oscillation experiments is to assume one dominant scale, $\Delta m^2$, of neutrino mass squared differences, in…
We study the effects of a scalar field, coupled only to neutrinos, on oscillations among weak interaction current eigenstates. The effect of a real scalar field appears as effective masses for the neutrino mass eigenstates, the same for…
All existing solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillation data are described by the standard two-neutrino formulas with neutrino mass squared differences that satisfy the hierarchy relation $\Delta m^{2}_{sol} \ll \Delta m^{2}_{atm}$. We…
When three Majorana neutrinos describe the solar and atmospheric neutrino data via oscillations, a nonzero measurement of neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay can determine the sum of neutrino masses $\sum m_\nu$ if the solar…
Positive evidence for neutrino oscillations is mounting from the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies and the LSND experiment. Accordingly, the neutrino mass differences appear to lie in the sub-eV range and at least some of the mixing…
