Weak interactions in neutron $\beta$-decay exhibit parity violation through the preferential emission of right-handed antineutrinos. We identify this symmetry breaking with a reduction of phase space due to the small neutrino mass. During a…
We show that a supersymmetric standard model exhibiting anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking can generate naturally the observed neutrino mass spectrum as well mixings when we include bilinear R-parity violation interactions. In this…
Core collapse supernovae are dominated by weakly interacting neutrinos. This provides a unique opportunity for macroscopic parity violation. We speculate that parity violation in a strong magnetic field can lead to an asymmetry in the…
We propose a novel implementation of spontaneous parity breaking in supersymmetric left-right symmetric model, avoiding some of the problems encountered in previous studies. This implementation includes a bitriplet and a singlet, in…
It is shown that neutrino oscillation and Majorana type neutrino are not compatible with Special Theory of Relativity. Instead of the Majorana type neutrino, traditional neutrino(no rest mass) is considered with additional assumptions that…

We consider the possibility of neutrino mass generation in a supersymmetric model where lepton number can be violated by odd units. The different patterns of mixing in the quark and lepton sectors are attributed to the persence of…
R-parity violation in the supersymmetric standard model could be the origin of neutrino masses and mixing accounting for the atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations. More interestingly, this hypothesis may be tested in future colliders…
