To describe neutrino oscillations in the sense of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, we propose to use an off-diagonal neutrino-Higgs (mass) interaction, as discussed originally in a family gauge theory and in the extended Standard…
In this talk, I first summarize our current knowledge about the fundamental properties of neutrinos and emphasize the remaining unsolved problems in neutrino physics. Then, recent theoretical results on neutrino mass models are introduced.…
We propose a theory for neutrino oscillations, in which the flavour neutrinos are treated as waves of massless particles propagating in a "refractive quantum vacuum" and obeying a relativistically covariant equation of motion. The…
We can start with the question: why are neutrino properties especially interesting? Recall that in the minimal standard model there are no right handed neutrinos and furthermore lepton number is conserved so neutrinos can have neither Dirac…
In the standard theory of neutrino oscillations it is supposed that physical observed neutrino states $\nu_{e}, \nu_{\mu}, \nu_{\tau}$ have no definite masses, that they are initially produced as a mixture of the $\nu_{1}, \nu_{2}, \nu_{3}$…
The phenomenology of massive neutrinos -- flavour mixing in the lepton sector causing oscillations between different neutrino-types along their propagation over macroscopic distances in vacuum -- aims at relating observable quantities…
The fundamental properties of neutrinos are reviewed in these lectures. The first part is focused on the basic characteristics of neutrinos in the Standard Model and how neutrinos are detected. Neutrino masses and oscillations are…
We review the main experimental and theoretical results related to neutrino physics and outline possible lines of developement. The main topics covered are: neutrino masses, oscillations, solar and atmospheric evidences, the LSND/MiniBoone,…
The historical discovery of neutrino oscillations using solar and atmospheric neutrinos, and subsequent accelerator and reactor studies, has brought neutrino physics to the precision era. We note that CP effects in oscillation phenomena…
The negative mass squared problem of the recent neutrino experiments from the five major institutions prompts us to speculate that, after all, neutrinos may be tachyons. There are number of reasons to believe that this could be the case.…
Neutrino oscillation is the new physics beyond standard model. In this paper we have revisited the issue of neutrino oscillation in simple and delicate manner. Starting from the fundamental quantum mechanical treatment for the neutrinos, we…
The landmark discovery that neutrinos have mass and can change type (or "flavor") as they propagate -- a process called neutrino oscillation -- has opened up a rich array of theoretical and experimental questions being actively pursued…
The symmetry between quarks and leptons suggests that neutrinos should have mass. As embodied in the grand unified theory SO(10) this yields masses that can only be detected by neutrino oscillations. Such oscillations could be very…
These lectures describe some aspects of the physics of massive neutrinos. After a brief introduction of neutrinos in the Standard Model, I discuss possible patterns for their masses. In particular, I show how the presence of a large…
The existence of three distinct neutrino flavours, $\nu_{e}$, $\nu_{\mu}$, and $\nu_{\tau}$, is a central tenet of the Standard Model of particle physics. Quantum-mechanical interference can allow a neutrino of one initial flavour to be…
Neutrino oscillations are well established and the relevant parameters determined with good precision, except for the CP phase, in terms of a unitary lepton mixing matrix. Seesaw extensions of the Standard Model predict unitarity deviations…
Recent research has indicated that the Standard Model (SM), while historically highly effective, is found to be insufficient due to its prediction of zero mass for neutrinos. With the exception of a few, the majority of the parameters…
These notes provide a review of various neutrino mass model and their implications for particle physics and the Standard Model. We discuss how mass terms are incorporated into the Standard Model, including the Dirac mass term and the…
Measurements of various features of the fluxes of atmospheric and solar neutrinos have provided evidence for neutrino oscillations and therefore for neutrino masses and mixing. We review the phenomenology of neutrino oscillations in vacuum…
In the present lectures the following topics are considered: general properties of neutrinos, neutrino mass phenomenology (Dirac and Majorana masses), neutrino masses in the simplest extensions of the standard model (including the seesaw…
