We discuss possibility of describing solar, atmospheric and LSND results with four neutrinos forming two quasi-degenerate pairs. The simplest versions of this 2+2 scheme with either $\nu_e$ or $\nu_\mu$ mixing exclusively with sterile…

We consider the ``standard'' spectrum of the active neutrinos (characterized by strong mass hierarchy and small mixing) with additional sterile neutrino, $\nu_s$. The sterile neutrino mixes strongly with the muon neutrino, so that…

It is shown that at least four massive neutrinos are needed in order to accommodate the evidences in favor of neutrino oscillations found in solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments and in the LSND experiment. Among all four-neutrino…

We make a model-independent analysis of all available data that indicate neutrino oscillations. Using probability diagrams, we confirm that a mass spectrum with two nearly degenerate pairs of neutrinos separated by a mass gap of $\simeq1$…

A model of neutrino oscillation experiments is constructed. The experiments incorporated are: solar neutrinos (Chlorine, Gallium, Super-K, and SNO), reactor neutrinos (Bugey and CHOOZ), beam stop neutrinos (LSND decay at rest and decay in…

Recent solar & atmospheric nu-data strongly indicate need for physics beyond the Standard Model. I review the ways of reconciling them in terms of 3-nu oscillations. Though not implied by data, bi-maximal nu-mixing models emerge as a…

We present a four-neutrino model with three active neutrinos and one sterile neutrino which naturally has maximal $\nu_\mu\to\nu_\tau$ oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos and can explain the solar neutrino and LSND results. The model…

The energy of atmospheric neutrinos detected by MACRO was estimated using multiple coulomb scattering of upward throughgoing muons. This analysis allows a test of atmospheric neutrino oscillations, relying on the distortion of the muon…

Motivated by existing and recent data on possible neutrino oscillations, we propose a model of four light neutrinos ($\nu_e, \nu_\mu, \nu_\tau$, and a singlet $\nu_S$) with a pattern of masses and mixing derivable from a $Z_5$ discrete…

We give a phenomenological interpretation of atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations by considering two scenarios for the neutrino mass spectrum: (a) m_1 \ll m_2 \ll m_3 and (b) m_1 \approx m_2 \approx m_3. A new parametrization of the…
