A model is presented to illustrate that vacuum neutrino oscillations can be essentially T and CP invariant up to a certain energy but strongly T and CP noninvariant at much higher energies. Detailed model results for the vacuum…
We examine how large CP- and T-violation effects are allowed in long baseline neutrino experiments with three generations of neutrinos, considering both the solar neutrino deficit and the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. We considerd two…

The data supporting neutrino oscillations are reexamined empirically, ignoring the phase space of the usual theory. An absolutely minimum description can be constructed easily without assuming oscillations. An empirical fit to a simplified…

The various experiments on neutrino oscillation evidenced that neutrinos have indeed non-zero masses but cannot tell us the absolute neutrino mass scale. This scale of neutrino masses is very important for understanding the evolution and…
Neutrinos in the Standard Model of particle physics are massless, neutral fermions that seemingly do little more than conserve 4-momentum, angular momentum, lepton number, and lepton flavour in weak interactions. In the last decade…
We discuss recent developments in neutrino physics and focus, in particular, on neutrino oscillations and matter effects of three light active neutrinos. Moreover, we discuss the difference between Dirac and Majorana neutrinos, neutrinoless…
A two-parameter neutrino mass formula is described, giving a moderately hierarchical spectrum m_1 < m_2 < m_3 consistent with the experimental estimates of Delta m^2_{21} and Delta m^2_{32}. The formula follows from a three-parameter…

If dark energy (DE) couples to neutrinos, then there may be apparent violations of Lorentz/CPT invariance in neutrino oscillations. The DE-induced Lorentz/CPT violation takes a specific form that introduces neutrino oscillations that are…
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…
The turn of the 21st century witnessed a sudden shift in our fundamental understanding of particle physics. While the minimal Standard Model predicts that neutrino masses are exactly zero, the discovery of neutrino oscillations proved the…
The interplay between neutrino masses and the interactions of neutrinos with matter is discussed with an eye to extending the latter to include possible new interactions. This conjecture may resolve the conundrum posed by the present…
Neutrino oscillations in the presence of Lorentz violation can present novel observable signals in both long- and short-baseline experiments. In this talk we describe the theory and its different regimes depending on properties of the…
New physics beyond the Standard Model could appear at long baseline oscillation experiments as non-standard interactions (NSI) between neutrinos and matter. If so, determination of the CP-violating phase $\delta_{13}$ is ambiguous due to…
Neutrino oscillation among the three active neutrino flavors is well established and supported by experiments at diverse length scales and energy scales. It may be noted that five of the neutrino oscillation parameters in the three-flavor…
These notes provide a review of various neutrino mass model and their implications for particle physics and the Standard Model. We discuss how mass terms are incorporated into the Standard Model, including the Dirac mass term and the…
