The physics of neutrino oscillation is summarized, and then the results of oscillation experiments, including the most recent results, are discussed. The possibility that neutrinos are their own antiparticles is examined. What we have…
Continuing the discussion of the problem of electromagnetic properties of neutrinos, in this note we present additional information on this problem and focus on selected issues that have been developed recently, after the publication of our…
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.
Standard solar models (SSM) are facing nowadays a new puzzle: the solar composition problem. New determinations of solar metal abundances lead SSM calculations to conflict with helioseismological measurements, showing discrepancies that…
We study the lensing of neutrinos by astrophysical objects. At the difference of photons, neutrinos can cross a stellar core; as a result the lens quality improves. While Uranians alone would benefit from this effect in the Sun, similar…
No doubt, among the most exciting discoveries of the third millennium thus far are {\bf Oscillations of Massive Neutrinos} and {\bf Dark Energy} that leads to an accelerated expansion of the Universe. Accordingly, Nuclear Physics is…
A brief overview of the electromagnetic properties of neutrinos is presented with a discussion of the most important fundamental aspects of the problem. Then using data from the ground-based reactor and solar neutrino-electron scattering…
A number of observed phenomena in high energy physics and cosmology lack their resolution within the Standard Model of particle physics. These puzzles include neutrino oscillations, baryon asymmetry of the universe and existence of dark…
The heavens are full of neutrinos, but so far we have observed a small subset of those. Performing such observations and analyzing the data from them require a thorough understanding of neutrino interactions. In this short review, the…
The theoretical motivations, experimental searches/hints, and implications of neutrino mass are surveyed.
Recent (first or/and the best) results from the neutrino experiments are reviewed and their implications for the theory are discussed. The sense of the experiments is the searching for neutrino masses, mixing and interactions beyond the…
Motivated by a pilot experiment conducted by F.Vannucci et al. during a solar eclipse, we work out the geometry governing the radiative decays of solar neutrinos. Surprisingly, although a smaller proportion of the photons can be detected,…
An elementary general overview of the neutrino physics and astrophysics is given. We start by a historical account of the development of our understanding of neutrinos and how they helped to unravel the structure of the Standard Model. We…

The main features of four-neutrino 3+1 and 2+2 mixing schemes are reviewed, after a discussion on the necessity of at least four massive neutrinos if the solar, atmospheric and LSND anomalies are due to neutrino oscillations. Complete list…
Evidence for $\bar \nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \bar \nu_e$ oscillations has been reported at LAMPF using the LSND detector. Further evidence for neutrino mixing comes from the solar neutrino deficit and the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. All of…
We review the status of testing the principle of equivalence and Lorentz invariance from atmospheric and solar neutrino experiments.
In the last two decades experiments have established the existence of neutrino oscillations and most of the related parameters have by now been measured with reasonable accuracy. These results have accomplished a major progress for particle…
