Neutrinos may be pseudo-Dirac states, such that each generation is actually composed of two maximally-mixed Majorana neutrinos separated by a tiny mass difference. The usual active neutrino oscillation phenomenology would be unaltered if…
Quasi-Dirac neutrinos are obtained when the Lagrangian density of a neutrino mass model contains both Dirac and Majorana mass terms, and the Majorana terms are sufficiently small. This type of neutrinos introduces new mixing angles and mass…
It is still unknown whether the mass terms for neutrinos are of Majorana type or of Dirac type. An interesting possibility, known as pseudo-Dirac scheme combines these two with a dominant Dirac mass term and a subdominant Majorana one. As a…
The recent results from the JUNO reactor neutrino experiment have significantly improved our knowledge of the solar mixing angle $\theta_{12}$ and the solar mass splitting $\Delta m^2_{21}$. We study the impact of these improved estimates…
The JUNO liquid scintillator-based experiment, construction of which is on-going in Jiangmen (China), will start operations in 2020 and will detect anti-neutrinos from nearby reactors; but also solar neutrinos via elastic scattering on…
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory~(JUNO) features a 20~kt multi-purpose underground liquid scintillator sphere as its main detector. Some of JUNO's features make it an excellent experiment for $^8$B solar neutrino measurements,…
The oscillations of pseudo-Dirac neutrinos in matter are discussed and applied to the solar neutrino problem. Several scenarios such as both $\nu_e$ and $\nu_{\mu}$ being pseudo-Dirac and only $\nu_e$ or $\nu_{\mu}$ being pseudo-Dirac are…
Aside from its primary purpose of shedding light on the mass hierarchy (MH) using reactor anti-neutrinos, the JUNO experiment in Jiangmen (China) will also contribute to study neutrinos from non-reactor sources. In this poster we review…
The Super-light Sterile Neutrino Scenario (SSNS) has been proposed in the literature to explain the suppression of the upturn in the low energy solar data. In this scenario, the mass splitting between the new mass eigenstate, $\nu_0$ and…
Motivated by the first oscillation results from JUNO, we study the phenomenological viability of texture zeros in the Dirac neutrino mass matrix. The improved precision on the solar mixing angle $\sin^2{\theta_{12}}$ and the solar…
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a multi-purpose neutrino experiment currently under construction in South China, in an underground laboratory with approximately 650 m of rock overburden (1800 m.w.e.). The detector…
Models of neutrino mixing involving one or more sterile neutrinos have resurrected their importance in the light of recent cosmological data. In this case, reactor antineutrino experiments offer an ideal place to look for signatures of…
Neutrinos can be pseudo-Dirac in nature -- Majorana fermions behaving as Dirac fermions for all practical purposes. In such a scenario, active and sterile neutrinos are quasi-degenerate in mass, and hence oscillations between the two, due…
We discuss here what model independent information about properties of neutrinos and of the sun can be obtained from future solar neutrino experiments (SNO, Super-Kamiokande). It is shown that in the general case of transitions of solar…
We study the impact of the precision determination of oscillation parameters in the JUNO experiment on half-life predictions for neutrinoless double beta decay. We show that the solar neutrino mixing angle can be measured by JUNO with below…
One of the main open issues of neutrino physics is the determination of the mass hierarchy, discriminating between the two possible ordering of the mass eigenvalues, known as Normal and Inverted Hierarchies. The solution of this puzzle…
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a 20 kton multi-purpose underground liquid scintillator detector, was proposed with the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy as a primary physics goal. It is also capable of…
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), the first multi-kton liquid scintillator detector, which is under construction in China, will have a unique potential to perform a real-time measurement of solar neutrinos well below the…
Neutrino masses and mixings are analyzed in terms of left-handed fields and a 6x6 complex symmetric mass matrix whose singular values are the neutrino masses. An angle x_nu characterizes the kind of the neutrinos, with x_nu = 0 for Dirac…
Neutrinos can be pseudo-Dirac in Nature - they can be Majorana fermions while behaving effectively as Dirac fermions. Such scenarios predict active-sterile neutrino oscillations driven by a tiny mass-squared difference $(\delta m^2)$, which…
