Recently, several reactor oscillation experiments have successively measured a nonzero value for the neutrino mixing angle ${\theta_{13}}$, which is greater than 5 standard deviations. Within framework of the $\mu$ from $\nu$ Supersymmetric…
The cosmological baryon asymmetry can be explained as remnant of heavy Majorana neutrino decays in the early universe. We study this mechanism for two models of neutrino masses with a large \nu_\mu-\nu_\tau mixing angle which are based on…
We describe a new mechanism of decoherence in excited atoms as a result of thermal particles scattering by the atomic nucleus. It is based on the idea that a single scattering will produce a sudden displacement of the nucleus, which will be…
Exotic explanations are considered for atmospheric neutrino observations. Our analysis includes matter effects and the mixing of all three neutrinos under the simplifying assumption of only one relevant mixing scale. Constraints from…
The accurate measurement of neutron skin thickness of $^{208}$Pb by the PREX Collaboration suggests a large value of the nuclear symmetry energy slope parameter, $L$, whereas the smaller $L$ is preferred to account for the small…
We discuss an asymmetry of the decay $\omega->e^+e^-$ in nuclear matter with respect to the electron and positron energies. This asymmetry is sensitive to the properties of the $\omega$ meson self-energy and, in particular, it has a…
In this brief review, I discuss the new physics unveiled by neutrino oscillation experiments over the past several years, and discuss several attempts at understanding the mechanism behind neutrino masses and lepton mixing. It is fair to…

The effect of $\delta-$ and $\omega-\rho-$meson cross couplings on asymmetry nuclear systems are analyzed in the frame-work of an effective Field theory motivated relativistic mean field formalism. The calculations are done on top of the G2…
We study a new type of effective interactions in terms of the $CPT$-even dimension-six Chern-Simons-like term, which could originate from superstring theory, to generate the cosmological birefringence. We use the neutrino number asymmetry…
Absorptive corrections, known to suppress proton-neutron transitions with large fractional momentum $z\to1$ in pp collisions, become dramatically strong on a nuclear target, and push the partial cross sections of leading neutron production…
Using the relativistic mean-field model with nonlinear couplings between the isoscalar and isovector mesons, we study the properties of isospin-asymmetric nuclear matter. Not only the vector mixing,…
In neutrino-nucleus interactions, a proton produced with a correlated pion might exhibit a left-right asymmetry relative to the lepton scattering plane even when the pion is absorbed. Absent in other proton production mechanisms, such an…
We discuss the one-body potentials for protons and neutrons obtained from Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculations of neutron-rich matter, in particular their dependence upon the degree of proton/neutron asymmetry. The closely related…
We present a review of the present status of the problem of neutrino masses and mixing including a survey of theoretical motivations and models, experimental searches and implications of recently appeared solar and atmospheric neutrino…
The neutrino-nucleon scattering in a collapsing star envelope with a strong magnetic field is investigated. The transferred by neutrinos momentum asymmetry along the field direction is obtained. It is shown that the neutrino-nucleon…
Using the Relativistic Mean Field Theory (RMF) it is shown that different proton fraction which is directly connected with the neutron excess and with the asymmetry of the system affects proto-neutron stars parameters and changes their…
Elastic scattering of neutrinos and antineutrinos on nucleons is considered. It is shown that the measurement of the neutrino-antineutrino asymmetry would allow to obtain model independent informations on the strange axial and vector form…

Spontaneous nuclear ortho-para transitions are shown to be possible in hydrogen molecule and molecular ion as due to hyperfine interaction odd-odd relative to the space or spin nuclear coordinate permutations. A part of this interaction…
