The radiatively induced neutrino mass matrix is investigated on the basis of an SU(5) SUSY model. In order to evade the proton decay, an ansatz based on a discrete symmetry $Z_2$ is assumed: although, at the unification scale, we have two…
I review the main options one has of introducing mass to neutrinos, including broken R-parity models, as well as the constraints on neutrino properties that follow from astrophysics, cosmology as well as laboratory observations.
Neutrino decay has been proposed as a possible solution to the atmospheric neutrino anomaly, in the light of the recent data from the Super-Kamiokande experiment. We investigate this hypothesis by means of a quantitative analysis of the…
In a R-parity violating (RPV) model of neutrino mass with three bilinear couplings $\mu_i$ and three trilinear couplings $\lambda'_{i33}$, where $i$ is the lepton index, we find six generic scenarios each with a distinctive pattern of the…
Theory suggests the existence of neutrino masses, but little more. Facts are coming close to reveal our fantasy: solar and atmospheric neutrino data strongly indicate the need for neutrino conversions, while LSND provides an intriguing…
In this lectures, we give a review about the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with $R$-Parity Violation because it provides an attractive way to generate neutrino masses, lepton mixing angles in acconcordance to present neutrino…
Partial Split Supersymmetry with violation of R-parity as a model for neutrino masses is explored. It is shown that at the one-loop level the model can give predictions that are in agreement with all present experimental values for the…
We use the detection of neutrinos from a future galactic type-II supernova event in a water Cerenkov detector like Super-Kamiokande to constrain the possible violation of spin-statistics by neutrinos resulting in their obeying a mixed…
We report on the results of a three-flavor oscillation analysis using Super-Kamiokande~I atmospheric neutrino data, with the assumption of one mass scale dominance ($\Delta m_{12}^2$$=$0). No significant flux change due to matter effect,…
We investigate the ability of the upcoming Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) neutrino experiment to detect new physics phenomena beyond the standard, three-massive-neutrinos paradigm; namely the existence of a fourth, sterile neutrino or…
$R$-parity violating supersymmetric models (RPV SUSY) are becoming increasingly more appealing than its $R$-parity conserving counterpart in view of the hitherto non-observation of SUSY signals at the LHC. In this paper, we discuss RPV…
A neutrino mass-mixing scheme which explains qualitatively all present evidence for neutrino mass (the solar and atmospheric neutrino deficits, LSND, and hot dark matter), and also makes possible heavy-element nucleosynthesis by supernovae,…
Supersymmetric theories with an R-parity generally yield a striking missing energy signature, with cascade decays concluding in a neutralino that escapes the detector. In theories where R-parity is broken the missing energy is replaced with…
In supersymmetric theories, sneutrino--anti-sneutrino mixing can occur with the oscillation time $\sim 0.01$ ps corresponding the atmospheric neutrino mass scale $\sim 0.05$ eV. We explore the possibility of observing sneutrino oscillation…
In this Brief Report, a non-standard solution to the solar neutrino problem is revisited. This solution assumes that neutrino flavors could have different couplings to gravity, hence, the equivalence principle is violated in this mechanism.…
The mixing of three and four massive neutrinos is considered. It is shown that the neutrino oscillation data are not compatible with a hierarchy of couplings in the three-neutrino case. In the case of four neutrinos, a hierarchy of masses…
Minimal R-parity violating supergravity predicts a value for $alpha_s(M_Z)$ smaller than in the case with conserved R-parity, and therefore closer to the experimental world average. We show that the R-parity violating effect on the…
Recent results on neutrino oscillations and neutrino masses are presented. The most exciting news are the Super-Kamiokande measurements of atmospheric neutrinos, which show evidence for the neutrinos being massive. Various possible schemes…
Light neutralinos could be copiously produced from the decays of mesons generated in cosmic-ray air showers. These neutralinos can be long-lived particles in the context of R-parity violating (RPV) supersymmetric models, implying that they…
In the context of neutrino scenarios characterized by four (three active plus one sterile) neutrino species and by mass spectra with two separated doublets, we analyze solutions to the atmospheric neutrino anomaly which smoothly interpolate…
