In charged current weak interaction processes, neutrinos are produced in an entangled state with the charged lepton. This correlated state is disentangled by the measurement of the charged lepton in a detector at the production site. We…
We consider several subtle aspects of the theory of neutrino oscillations which have been under discussion recently. We show that the $S$-matrix formalism of quantum field theory can adequately describe neutrino oscillations if correct…
The theory underlying neutrino oscillations has been described at length in the literature. The neutrino state produced by a weak decay is usually portrayed as a linear superposition of mass eigenstates with, variously, equal energies or…
As the increasing of neutrino energy or matter density, the neutrino oscillation in matter may undergo "vacuum-dominated", "resonance" and "matter-dominated" three different stages successively. Neutrinos endure very different matter…
For neutrino oscillations to take place the entangled quantum state of a neutrino and a charged lepton produced via charged current interactions must be disentangled. Implementing a non-perturbative Wigner-Weisskopf method we obtain the…
Neutrino scillations cannot arise from an initial isolated one particle state if four-momentum is conserved. The transition matrix element is generally squared and summed over all final states with no interference between orthogonal final…
It is well known that neutrino oscillations may damp due to decoherence caused by the separation of mass eigenstate wave packets or by a baseline uncertainty of order the oscillation wave length. In this note we show that if the particles…
Description of neutrino oscillation in the case of Non-Standard neutrino Interaction (NSI) is briefly presented. The NSI causes the entanglement between internal degrees of freedom of neutrinos (mass, spin, flavour) and other accompanying…
Many experiments are currently looking for evidence of neutrino mass in the form of neutrino oscillations. Oscillation probabilities are non-linear functions of the neutrino mixing matrix elements, so most comparisons of data to theory are…
The standard treatment of neutrino oscillations usually relies on factorization which assumes neutrino production, propagation, and detection are independent processes. As a consequence, the total probability is given by the product of…
We study the oscillations of neutrinos in a model in which the neutrino is coupled to a localized, idealized source and detector. By varying the spatial and temporal resolution of the source and detector we are able to model the full range…
Neutrino oscillations change when in media in comparison to vacuum oscillations due to the scattering of neutrinos on matter constituents, electrons particularly. This can be easily described by introducing new effective matter mixing…
One of the main purposes of long-baseline neutrino experiments is to unambiguously measure the CP violating phase in the neutrino sector within the three neutrino oscillation picture. In the presence of physics beyond the Standard Model,…
We study the interplay between coherence and mixedness in meson and neutrino systems. The dynamics of the meson system is treated using the open quantum system approach taking into account the decaying nature of the system. Neutrino…
We re-examine neutrino oscillations in exact parity models. Previously it was shown in a specific model that large neutrino mixing angles result. We show here that this is a general result of neutrino mixing in exact parity models provided…
The flavor evolution of neutrinos in environments with large neutrino number densities is an open problem at the nexus of astrophysics and neutrino flavor physics. Among the many unanswered questions pertaining to this problem, it remains…
Space-time localization diagrams ``unlock" subtle aspects of $\nu$ oscillations such as coherence and entanglement. Observability of propagation decoherence in oscillating neutrino state is discussed. The sizes of WPs of reactor and source…
A new experiment studying the behavior of a radioactive ion before its weak decay by K-capture suggests that neutrino masses and mixing can be investigated without detecting the neutrino. Every weak decay can be observed, thus avoiding the…
We study the dynamics of active-sterile neutrino oscillations in the early universe using full momentum-dependent quantum-kinetic equations. These equations are too complicated to allow for an analytical treatment, and numerical solution is…
We analyze the neutrino mass matrix entries and their correlations in a probabilistic fashion, constructing probability distribution functions using the latest results from neutrino oscillation fits. Two cases are considered: the standard…
