The Zee model generates neutrino masses at the one-loop level by adding charged SU(2)_L-singlet and extra SU(2)_L-doublet scalars to the standard model of particle physics. As the origin of the nontrivial structure of the lepton flavor…

If the solution to the solar neutrino puzzle falls in the LMA region, KamLAND should be able to measure with good precision the corresponding oscillation parameters after a few years of data taking. Assuming a positive signal, we study…

The Zee model, which employs the standard Higgs scalar ($\phi$) with its duplicate ($\phi^\prime$) and a singly charged scalar ($h^+$), can utilize two global symmetries associated with the conservation of the numbers of $\phi$ and…

We present the results of a Bayesian analysis of solar neutrino data in terms of nu_e->nu_{mu,tau} oscillations, independent from the Standard Solar Model predictions for the solar neutrino fluxes. We show that such a model independent…

We generalize the pull approach to define the $\chi^2$ function to the analysis of the data with correlated statistical errors. We apply this method to the analysis of the Sudbury Neutrino Collaboration data obtained in the salt-phase. In…

Working in the framework of three chiral neutrinos with Majorana masses, we investigate a scenario first realized in an explicit model by Zee: that the neutrino mass matrix is strictly off-diagonal in the flavor basis, with all its diagonal…

We study implications of recent data on neutrino mixing from T2K, MINOS, Double Chooz and $\mu \to e \gamma$ from MEG for the Zee model. The simplest version of this model has been shown to be ruled out by experimental data some time ago.…

Recent SNO results give strong evidence that the solar neutrinos undergo the flavor conversion. Main issue now is the identification of the mechanism of conversion. The LMA MSW solution with $\Delta m^2 = (5 - 7) \cdot 10^{-5}$ eV$^2$,…

Neutrino oscillations reveal several small parameters, namely, $\theta_{13}$, the solar mass splitting {\em vis-\`{a}-vis} the atmospheric one, and the deviation of $\theta_{23}$ from maximal mixing. Can these small quantities all be traced…

Solar and atmospheric neutrino data require physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The simplest, most generic, but not yet unique, interpretation of the data is in terms of neutrino oscillations. I summarize the results of…
