The simplest unified extension of the MSSM with bi-linear R--Parity violation naturally predicts a hierarchical neutrino mass spectrum, in which one neutrino acquires mass by mixing with neutralinos, while the other two get mass…

Assuming the Majorana masses of $\nu_e$ and the linear combination $c \nu_\tau - s \nu_\mu$ to be equal from their couplings to a heavy scalar triplet $\xi$, I show that their radiative splitting is given by $\Delta m^2/m_\nu^2 = (3 c^2/4…

We use a model, with no CP violation, of the world's neutrino oscillation data, excluding the LSND experiments, and search the full parameter space ($0\leq\theta_{12} \le \pi/2$; $-\pi/2 \le \theta_{13} \le \pi/2$; and 0\leq\theta_{23} \le…

We present a theory of neutrino oscillations in a dense medium which goes beyond the effective matter potential used in the description of the MSW effect. We show how the purity of the neutrino state is degraded by neutrino interactions…
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…
