This talk is a brief overview of the present status of neutrino mass physics.
It is shown how high energy neutrino beams from very distant sources can be utilised to learn about many neutrino properties such as lifetimes, mass hierarchy, mixing, minuscule pseudo-Dirac mass splittings and other exotic properties. In…
I summarize the status of neutrino oscillations that follow from current data, including the status of the small parameters ratio of solar-over-atmospheric splitting and $\sin^2\theta_{13}$ characterizing the strength of CP violation in…
As a free, intensive, weakly interacting, and well directional messenger, solar neutrinos have been driving both solar physics and neutrino physics developments for more than half a century. Since more extensive and advanced neutrino…
The advent of visible-infrared laser pulses carrying a substantial fraction of their energy in a single field oscillation cycle has opened a new era in the experimental investigation of ultrafast processes in semiconductors and dielectrics…
A review of the recent achievements in high energy neutrino physics and, partly, neutrino astrophysics is presented. It is argued that experiments with high energy neutrinos of natural origin can be used for a search of new physics effects…
Solar neutrinos offer a unique opportunity to study the interaction of neutrinos with matter, a sensitive search for potential new physics effects, and a probe of solar structure and solar system formation. This paper describes the broad…
Recent neutrino oscillation experiments are yielding valuable information on the nature of neutrino masses and mixings even though we are far from a complete understanding of the new physics implied by them. In these lectures, I summarize…
We approach to the ortho-positronium (o-Ps) as a relativistic two-body problem in $2+1$ dimensions in which o-Ps is composed of two-oppositely charged particles interacting via an attractive Coulomb force. In addition to separation of…
We perform ab initio calculations of optical properties for a typical semiconductor conjugated polymer, poly-para-phenylenevinylene, in both isolated chain and crystalline packing. In order to obtain results for excitonic energies and…

A review of the problem of neutrino mass, mixing and oscillations is given. Possible phenomenological schemes of neutrino mixing are discussed. The most important consequences of neutrino mixing--neutrino oscillations are considered in some…
Supported by results obtained with semi-classical quantization techniques, and with a quantum mechanical "square-root Klein-Gordon" operator, it is argued that Positronium (Ps) may exhibit a proper quantum-mechanical ground state whose…
We review recent progress in the understanding of low-energy baryon structure by means of chiral perturbation theory. In particular, we discuss the application of this formalism to the description of various properties such as the…
I concentrate on two topics. One is techniques to distinguish amongst various oscillation scenarios from atmospheric neutrino data; and the other is the Borexino solar neutrino detector and its capabilities.
In this essay, I discuss an interdisciplinary science that is just blossoming: that of geo-neutrinos. I begin with a couple of episodes from the history of thought, showing the deep roots of Earth science and its many connections with…
