We review the status of the neutrino oscillation physics (as of June 2003), with a particular emphasis on the present knowledge of the neutrino mass-mixing parameters in a three generation approach. We consider first the nu_mu-->nu_tau…
Deviations from expectations have been claimed for solar, atmospheric and high energy prompt neutrinos from charm decay. This information, supplemented only by the existing very good upper limits for oscillations of the $\nu_{\mu}$ at…
The $^8$B solar neutrino flux predicted by the standard solar model (SSM) is consistent within the theoretical and experimental uncertainties with that observed at Kamiokande. The Gallium and Chlorine solar neutrino experiments, however,…
Recent solar & atmospheric nu-data strongly indicate need for physics beyond the Standard Model. I review the ways of reconciling them in terms of 3-nu oscillations. Though not implied by data, bi-maximal nu-mixing models emerge as a…
We present an updated analysis of all available solar and reactor neutrino data, emphasizing in particular the totality of the KamLAND results and including the SNO phase III spectrum data. In a two active-neutrino framework, we determine…
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…
The time variation of the elastic scattering rate of solar neutrinos with electrons in Super-Kamiokande-I was fit to the variations expected from active two-neutrino oscillations. The best fit in the Large Mixing Angle solution has a mixing…
Recent results from SuperKamiokande and SNO experiments have set severe constraints on possible mixings of a light sterile neutrino, \nu_s, with the three active species required for a simultaneous explanation of the solar, atmospheric and…
We present new limits on nu_e to nu_tau and nu_e to nu_sterile oscillations by searching for electron neutrino dissappearance in the high-energy wide-band CCFR neutrino beam. Sensitivity to nu_tau appearance comes from tau decay modes in…
The first results from the KamLAND experiment have provided confirmational evidence for the Large Mixing Angle (LMA) MSW solution to the solar neutrino problem. We do a global analysis of solar and the recently announced KamLAND data (both…
A plausible explanation for the existence of additional light sterile neutrinos is that they correspond to modulini, fermionic partners of moduli, which propagate in new large dimensions. We discuss the phenomenological implications of such…
We reconsider the impact of $\bar\nu_e \leftrightarrow \bar\nu_{\mu,\tau}$ neutrino oscillations on the observed $\bar\nu_e$ signal of supernova SN 1987A. Performing a maximum-likelihood analysis using as fit parameters the released binding…
I summarize here the results of a global fit to the full data set corresponding to 535 days of data of the Super-Kamiokande experiment as well as to all other experiments in order to compare the two most likely solutions to the atmospheric…
Recent results from the SNO, Super-Kamiokande and Borexino experiments do not show the expected upturn of the energy spectrum of events (the ratio $R \equiv N_{obs}/N_{SSM}$) at low energies. At the same time, cosmological observations…
In this work the possibility of detecting solar electron antineutrinos produced by a solar core magnetic field from the KamLAND recent observations is investigated. We find a scaling of the antineutrino probability with respect to the…
We follow a minimalistic approach to neutrino masses, by introducing a single heavy singlet $N$ into the standard model (or supersymmetric standard model) with a heavy Majorana mass $M$, which couples as a single right-handed neutrino in a…
We study in detail the threshold energy dependence of the seasonal variation effect in the energy integrated solar neutrino signal of the Super-Kamiokande detector in the case of the $\nu_{e}\leftrightarrow \nu_{\mu,\tau}$ vacuum…
We study the matter effects to neutrino oscillations \nu_\mu \to \nu_e and \nu_\mu \to \nu_\mu at very long baselines. It has been observed that, for a very long baseline L~10000 km, the resonance peak for the \nu_\mu \to \nu_e oscillation…
It is shown that the large angle MSW solution of the solar neutrino problem with a bi-maximal neutrino mixing matrix implies an energy-independent suppression of the solar nu_e flux. The present solar neutrino data exclude this solution of…
The current Super-Kamiokande data on the D-N asymmetry between the the day event rate and the {\it Night} and {\it Core} event rates, produced by solar neutrinos which respectively cross the Earth along any trajectory and cross the Earth…
