Oscillations of three neutrinos with all squared mass splittings around 10^{-3} eV^2 are not firmly excluded by solar neutrino experiments. We carefully verify that they are also perfectly compatible with atmospheric neutrino experiments:…
The K2K experiment has presented the first results on the observation of nu_mu. They show a depletion compared to the expectations and are consistent with neutrino oscillations with a mass-splitting in the range favoured by the…
Models with three active neutrinos and one sterile neutrino can naturally account for maximal oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos, explain the solar neutrino deficit, and accommodate the results of the LSND experiment. The models predict…
The SNO+ Collaboration reports new results on reactor antineutrino oscillations using data acquired from May 2022 through July 2025. The spectral analysis of a flux dominated by nuclear reactors at 240, 350, and 355 kilometers yields the…
If a family symmetry exists so that all three neutrinos have equal Majorana masses (via the seesaw mechanism), then the breaking of this symmetry from charged-lepton masses (via two-loop double $W$ exchange) implies $\Delta m$ less than…
Assuming Majorana neutrinos, we infer from oscillation data the expected values of the parameters m_{nu_e} and m_{ee} probed by beta and 0nu2beta-decay experiments. If neutrinos have a `normal hierarchy' we get the 90% CL ranges |m_{ee}| =…
Ultra-high energy cosmic neutrinos are incisive probes of both astrophysical sources and new TeV-scale physics. Such neutrinos would create extensive air showers deep in the atmosphere. The absence of such showers implies upper limits on…
Present experimental data from neutrino oscillations have provided much information about the neutrino mixing angles. Since neutrino oscillations only determine the mass squared differences $\Delta m^2_{ij} = m^2_i - m^2_j$, the absolute…
Phenomenology of neutrino oscillations in vacuum and in cosmological plasma is considered. Neutrino oscillations in vacuum are usually described in plane wave approximation. In this formalism there is an ambiguity if one should assume…
Numerous estimates of upper bounds on the (anti)neutrino rest mass have been published based on the SN1987A observations. Here, we use a nonkinematic (thermal) time extent to provide a rest mass estimate of a few eV (as mc^2 mass), if not…
Neutrino oscillation models involving one extra mass eigenstate beyond the standard three ($3+1$) are fit to global short baseline experimental data and the recent IceCube $\nu_\mu+\bar\nu_\mu$ disappearance search result. We find a best…
Recent observations of TeV gamma rays from distant sources provide new limits on the cosmic infrared background and thus on radiative decays of background neutrinos. I translate these limits into bounds on transition dipole moments and…
We focus on the implications of the oscillations for the shape of nuclear beta-spectrum (=direct search for nu mass). This is of interest because of the existing bound, m_(nu_e)<2.2 eV, that could improve by one order of magnitude with…
Determining absolute neutrino masses remains a central challenge in particle physics. Relations among the neutrino mass-squared differences could facilitate this determination and shed additional light on the underlying mass-generation…
There are several new features in production, oscillations and detection of the atmospheric neutrinos of low energies, E<100 MeV. The flavor ratio, r, of muon to electron neutrino fluxes is substantially smaller than 2 and decreases with…
We perform a phenomenological analysis of neutrino oscillation in a four generation framework introducing an additional sterile neutrino. In such a scenario, more than one pattern is possible that can accommodate three hieararchically…
The lower and upper bounds on the neutrinoless double beta (0nu-2beta) decay rate are obtained, as functions of the parameters of neutrino oscillations and of the lightest neutrino mass. The constraints on these parameters from the search…
A recent experiment LSND at Los Alamos has provided\cite{1} an indication of $\overline{\nu}_{\mu} - \overline{\nu}_e$ oscillations with $\Delta m^2$ of order 1ev$^2$ or greater and $\sin^2 2 \theta_{e \mu}$ between $2 \times 10^{-3}$ and…
A mass-energy scale for neutrinos was calculated from the null cone curvature using geometric concepts. The scale is variable depending on the gravitational potential and the trajectory inclination with respect to the field direction. The…
Allowed regions on the m_l - cos{2\theta_{12}} plane are extracted from results of neutrinoless double beta decay experiments. It is shown that 0.05 eV (0 eV) < m_l < 1.85 eV is obtained for the normal (inverted) hierarchy by using the LMA…
