We make a general study of possibility of generating solar scale $\Delta_{\odot}$ and the CHOOZ angle $U_{e3}$ radiatively by assuming that they are zero at some high scale. The most general neutrino mass matrix leading to this result is…
We give predictions for the up-down asymmetry in the Nadir angle dependence of the ratio Nmu/Ne of the rates of the mu-like and e-like multi-GeV events measured in water-Cerenkov detectors (Super-Kamiokande, etc.) in the case of 3-neutrino…
A global analysis of the solar, atmospheric and reactor neutrino data is presented in terms of three-neutrino oscillations. We include the most recent solar neutrino rates of Homestake, SAGE, GALLEX and GNO, as well as the recent 1117 day…
Oscillations of three neutrinos with all squared mass splittings around 10^{-3} eV^2 are not firmly excluded by solar neutrino experiments. We carefully verify that they are also perfectly compatible with atmospheric neutrino experiments:…
The oscillations of pseudo-Dirac neutrinos in matter are discussed and applied to the solar neutrino problem. Several scenarios such as both $\nu_e$ and $\nu_{\mu}$ being pseudo-Dirac and only $\nu_e$ or $\nu_{\mu}$ being pseudo-Dirac are…
We analyze the solar and the atmospheric neutrino problems in the context of three flavour neutrino oscillations. We assume a mass hierarchy in the vacuum mass eigenvalues $\mu_3^2 \gg \mu_2^2 \geq \mu_1^2$, but make no approximation…
We discuss the possibility to observe matter effects in atmospheric neutrino oscillations. The main conclusion is that an impact on the nu_mu survival probability requires the action of the MSW resonance, which becomes visible for baselines…
We calculate matter effects on neutrino oscillations relevant for long baseline experiments. In particular, we compare the results obtained with constant density along the neutrino path versus results obtained by incorporating the actual…
We study the consequences of assuming that the mass scale $\Delta_{odot}$ corresponding to the solar neutrino oscillations and mixing angle $U_{e3}$ corresponding to the electron neutrino oscillation at CHOOZ are radiatively generated…
In this thesis we explore the implications of neutrino oscillations in the context of the solar neutrino data, the atmospheric neutrino data and results from the terrestrial accelerator/reactor neutrino oscillation experiments. We perform…
We perform a detailed study of the Earth matter effects on supernova neutrinos. The dependences of these effects on the properties of the original neutrino fluxes, on the trajectory of the neutrinos inside the Earth and on the oscillation…
The implications of the deficit of solar neutrinos are discussed. If all of the experiments are taken literally the relative suppressions render an astrophysical explanation unlikely. Allowing MSW conversions, the data simultaneously…
I summarize the status of neutrino oscillations that follow from current data, including the status of the small parameters ratio of solar-over-atmospheric splitting and $\sin^2\theta_{13}$ characterizing the strength of CP violation in…
Extending the minimal standard model of particle interactions (without right-handed singlet neutrinos) to include a heavy scalar triplet $\xi$ to obtain nonzero Majorana neutrino masses, I derive the following simple realistic connection…
We have analyzed the results of the latest terrestrial neutrino oscillation experiments in the framework of a model with mixing of three massive neutrinos and a neutrino mass hierarchy ($ m_1 << m_2 << m_3 $). In this model, oscillations of…
The inertial effects on neutrino oscillations induced by the acceleration and angular velocity of a reference frame are calculated. Such effects have been analyzed in the framework of the solar and atmospheric neutrino problem.
We consider the case that the solar neutrino deficit is due to the vacuum oscillation. The lepton mass matrices with nearly bi-maximal mixings are needed in order to explain both solar and atmospheric neutrino deficit. A texture with the…
Exotic explanations are considered for atmospheric neutrino observations. Our analysis includes matter effects and the mixing of all three neutrinos under the simplifying assumption of only one relevant mixing scale. Constraints from…
The three neutrino mass matrices in the $SU(5)\times U(2)$ model are studied focusing on the neutrino oscillation experiments. The atmospheric neutrino anomaly could be explained by the large $\nu_{\mu} - \nu_{\tau}$ oscillation. The long…
We show that in the framework of three light neutrino species with hierarchical masses and assuming no fine tuning between the entries of the neutrino mass matrix, one can use the solar neutrino data to obtain information on the element…
