A mass-energy scale for neutrinos was calculated from the null cone curvature using geometric concepts. The scale is variable depending on the gravitational potential and the trajectory inclination with respect to the field direction. The…

Compared to the other neutrino mixing angles \theta_{13} is small. The solar mass splitting is about two orders smaller than the atmospheric splitting. We show that it is possible that both are perturbative effects on a more symmetric…

Consequences of a new force mediated by a light scalar particle for neutrino oscillation experiments are considered. Such a force could give rise to neutrino masses and mixings whose matter dependence is much more significant than the MSW…
We investigate the effect of sterile neutrinos that are nearly degenerate with active ones on the flux of ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray neutrinos at earth. This offers a way to probe neutrino oscillations in the mass-squared range (10^{-16}…

Two schemes of mixing of four massive neutrinos with two couples of close neutrino masses separated by a gap of the order of 1 eV can accommodate solar, atmospheric and LSND neutrino oscillation data. It is shown that long-baseline…

Maximum mixing in atmospheric neutrino oscillation, as well as vanishing of the MNS matrix element $U_{e3}$, are consequences of a 2-3 symmetry, under which the neutrino mass matrix is invariant under the interchange of second and third…
Solar neutrino studies triggered and largely motivated the major developments in neutrino physics in the last 50 years. Theory of neutrino propagation in different media with matter and fields has been elaborated. It includes oscillations…
