Mass-varying neutrino (MaVaN) models propose a source of dark energy in a new scalar field called the acceleron. Recent work has shown that nonrelativistic neutrino fields in these theories are unstable to inhomogeneous fluctuations, and…
Assuming three flavour neutrino mixing takes place in vacuum, we investigate the possibility that the solar $\nu_e$ take part in MSW transitions in the Sun due to $\Delta m^2_{31} \sim (10^{-7} - 10^{-4})~eV^2$, followed by long wave length…
We present models that can reconcile the solar and atmospheric neutrino data with the existence of a hot dark matter component in the universe. This dark matter is a quasi-Dirac neutrino whose mass $m_{DM}$ arises at the one-loop level. The…
The MSW or vacuum oscillation solution of the solar neutrino problem can be reconciled with possible existence of the $(\beta\beta)_{0\nu}$ decay with a half-life corresponding to an effective Majorana mass of the electron neutrino…
Neutrino masses and the number of light neutrino species can be tested in a variety of laboratory experiments and also can be constrained by particle astrophysics and precision cosmology. A conflict between these various results could be an…
The atmospheric neutrino oscillations and the vacuum oscillation solution of the solar neutrino problem can be consistently described by a doubly or triply degenerate neutrino spectrum as long as the high level of degeneracy required is not…
What information about the neutrino mass spectrum and mixing matrix can be inferred from the existing neutrino oscillation data? We discuss here the answer to this question in the case of mixing of three and four neutrinos. We present the…
We investigate how matter density affects neutrino oscillations by considering a mass-varying neutrino scenario where the neutrino mass depends on a scalar field. This scalar field is non-minimally coupled to the Gauss-Bonnet (GB)…
In models with a light scalar field (the `acceleron') coupled to neutrinos, neutrino masses depend on neutrino density. The resulting coupled system of mass varying neutrinos (MaVaNs) and the acceleron can act as a negative pressure fluid…
All existing measurements of the solar neutrino flux are compared with the predictions of the most recent solar model by Bahcall and Pinsonneault, modified by introducing the hypothesis of neutrino oscillations with mass differences large…
The Lehmann-Newton-Wu mass matrix, which was recently applied to neutrinos, is further investigated. The analytic results presented earlier are confirmed numerically for the solar density profile of the Standard Solar Model. The combined…
We study the solar neutrino problem within the framework of a parametrized post-Newtonian formulation for the gravitational interaction of the neutrinos, which incorporates a violation to the equivalence principle (VEP). Using the current…
Recent evidence for oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos at Super-Kamiokande suggest, in the simplest see-saw interpretation, neutrino masses such that `just so' vacuum oscillations can explain the solar neutrino deficit. Super-K solar…
Sensitive tests of Lorentz invariance can emerge from the study of neutrino oscillations, particularly for atmospheric neutrinos where the effect is conveniently near-maximal and has been observed over a wide range of energies. We assume…
If the observed deficit of solar neutrinos is due to neutrino oscillations, neutrino conversions caused by the interaction of their transition magnetic moments with the solar magnetic field (spin-flavour precession) can still be present at…
The present status of the solar neutrino problem is reviewed. The strongest motivation for new neutrino physics comes from the complete phenomenological failure of astrophysical solutions: (1) The standard solar model is excluded by each of…
We incorporate all existing solar neutrino flux measurements and take solar model flux uncertainties into account in deriving global fits to parameter space for the MSW and vacuum solutions of the solar neutrino problem.
We suggest a would-be solution to the solar neutrino tension why solar neutrinos appear to mix differently from reactor antineutrinos, in theoretical respect. To do that, based on an extended theory with light sterile neutrinos added we…
The case for small neutrino mass differences from atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillation experiments has become compelling, but leaves the overall neutrino mass scale m_nu undetermined. The most restrictive limit of m_nu < 0.8 eV arises…
It is shown that the well established and confirmed neutrino experimental results, such as atmospheric neutrino oscillations and solar neutrino deficit, can be easily explained for "democratic" left-handed Majorana neutrinos, taking into…
