We develop a theory of the EPR-like effects due to neutrino oscillations in the $\pi \to \mu\nu$ decays. Its experimental implications are space-time correlations of neutrino and muon when they are both detected, while the pion decay point…
Muons produced via the $\pi \to \mu \nu_{\mu}$ decay are in a coherent superposition of energy states because the $\nu_{\mu}$ is not a mass eigenstate. This presents an opportunity to access neutrino mixing parameters via muon decay. The…
Particle oscillations following neutrino production processes are analysed within Feynman's path amplitude formulation of quantum mechanics. Consideration of the temporal sequence of production and detection events reveals an important…
The relevance of the data concerning upward--going muons for the solution of the atmospheric neutrino problem is stressed. In particular, their inclusion in the analysis confirms the goodness of the neutrino oscillation hypothesis and…
Observations of atmospheric neutrinos offer compelling evidence that neutrinos have mass and do oscillate. Preliminary data are compatible with maximal $\nu_\mu$--$\nu_\tau$ mixing, but not with pure $\nu_\mu$--$\nu_e$ mixing. In a general…
In the current theory, neutrino oscillations require that the masses of neutrinos are non-vanishing. By analogy with the oscillation of quantum two-state system, we assume that neutrino oscillations may be regarded as quantum tunneling…
Neutrino decay in vacuum has often been considered as an alternative to neutrino oscillations. Because non-zero neutrino masses imply the possibility of both neutrino decay and neutrino oscillations, we present a model-independent formal…
Do neutrinos have nonzero masses? If they do, then these masses are very tiny, and can be sought only in very sensitive experiments. The most sensitive of these search for neutrino oscillation, a quantum interference effect which requires…
Oscillation experiments show that neutrinos have masses. They however only determine the neutrinop mass differences. Information on the absolute masses can be obtained by studying the kinematics in weak decays, or by searching for…
It is shown that the neutrino oscillations phenomenon may be attributed to the Wilson fermion doubling phenomenon. The Wilson fermion doubling exists only on the lattices, both periodic and non-periodic (simplicial complexes). Just the last…
Neutrino oscillation is visualized as coupled vibrations. Unlike existing models describing neutrino oscillations, our model involving a single fundamental mass parameter $m$ and first discussed in the context of a possible boson…
Neutrino flavour oscillations in a nonuniformly moving matter are considered. The neutrino oscillation resonance condition in presence of matter, in the most general case when matter is moving with acceleration, is derived for the first…
Some consequences of the oscillations of neutral kaons and neutrinos are discussed, in particular, the possibility of oscillations of particles recoiling against kaons or neutrinos from the production process. We show that there are no…
Neutrino mixing and basics of neutrino oscillations are considered. Recent evidences in favour of neutrino oscillations, obtained in the solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments, are discussed. Neutrino oscillations in the solar and…
The electron and muon number violating muonium-antimuonium oscillation process can proceed provided neutrinos have non-zero masses and mix among the various generations. Modifying the Standard Model only by the inclusion of singlet right…
If neutrinos have masses and mixings, in general some will decay. In models with new particles and new couplings, some decay modes can be fast enough to be of phenomenological interest.
The energy and zenith angle distribution of neutrino induced, upward going muons can give direct information on the presence of $\nu$--oscillations in precisely the range of parameters suggested as a solution of the atmospheric neutrino…
Certainly one of the most exciting areas of research at present is neutrino physics. The neutrinos are fantastically numerous in the universe and as such they have bearing on our understanding of the universe. Therefore, we must understand…
A brief review of the problem of neutrino masses and oscillations is given. In the beginning we present an early history of neutrino masses, mixing and oscillations. Then we discuss all possibilities of neutrino masses and mixing (neutrino…
A simple but general proof is presented to show that Lorents covariance and 4-momentum conservation alone are sufficient to obtain muon oscillations in the pion decay if the recoiling neutrinos oscillate.
