We show how two different scales for oscillations between $e$ and $\mu$ neutrinos, characterized by different mixing angles and effective mass scales, can arise in a simple and theoretically attractive framework. One scale characterizes…
We point out that the recoil electron kinetic energy spectra in the nu-e elastic scattering are different for incident nu_{e} or nu_{mu,tau}, and hence one can in principle establish the existence of the nu_{mu,tau} component in the solar…

We suggest an experimental measurement that could detect the appearance of the tau neutrinos in muon to tau neutrino oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos by measuring the energy spectra of neutrino induced showers. Tau neutrinos deposit a…
