We review critically the main assumptions on which the standard theory of neutrino oscillations is based. We show that all assumptions are realistic, except the so-called "equal momentum assumption", which however is irrelevant. We briefly…
Neutrino propagation in the Galactic and extragalactic magnetic fields is considered. We extend an approach developed in \cite{Popov:2019nkr} to describe neutrino flavour and spin oscillations using wave packets. The evolution equations for…
Neutrino physics is one of the most important topics in particle physics and cosmology. Despite the many physical properties of neutrinos that are understood theoretically and experimentally, it is known that there are many unsolved…
We consider neutrino oscillations in vacuum in the framework of quantum field theory in which neutrino production and detection processes are part of a single Feynman diagram and the corresponding cross section is computed in the standard…
A neutrino produced in a particle decay maintains an unusual wave nature that reveals a diffraction phenomenon in a large spatial region. Diffraction gives a new component to a neutrino flux in this region and modifies determinations of…
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…
The Standard Model of particle physics describes neutrinos as massless, chargeless elementary particles that come in three different flavours. However, recent experiments indicate that neutrinos not only have mass, but also have multiple…
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…
The phenomenon of neutrino oscillation has been firmly established: neutrinos change their flavor in their path from their source to observers. This paper is dedicated to the description of experimental results in the oscillation field, of…
We study the effect of coherent and incoherent broadening on neutrino oscillations both in vacuum and in the presence of matter (the MSW effect). We show under very general assumptions that it is not possible to distinguish experimentally…
Recent constrains on the sum of neutrino masses inferred by analyzing cosmological data, show that detecting a non-zero neutrino mass is within reach of forthcoming cosmological surveys, implying a direct determination of the absolute…
An upper limit on $n-\bar n$ oscillations can be obtained from the stability of matter. This relation has been worked out theoretically and together with data yields $\tau_{n\bar n} > (1 - 2)\times 10^8 sec$. A recent publication claims a…
Neutrino masses and mixing can be investigated by studying the behavior of a radioactive bare nucleus which decays by emitting an electron into the open atomic K shell BEFORE and DURING its weak decay by neutrino emission. The initial…
In the charged pion decay, a neutrino is produced in pair with a charged lepton and they have the same production rate. In this paper we show that neutrinos have their own space-time correlations in a wide area and are detected in a…
In the last decades, a very important breakthrough has been brought in the elementary particle physics by the discovery of the phenomenon of the neutrino oscillations, which has shown neutrino properties beyond the Standard Model. But a…
Gravitational waves (GWs) can alter the neutrino propagation distance and thus affect neutrino oscillations. This can result in a complete disappearance of the oscillatory behavior that competes with other sources of neutrino decoherence.…
Neutrino oscillation parameters can be understood in a better way by building a more complete picture of neutrino interactions. This poses a series of important theoretical and experimental challenges because of the elusive nature of…
Two-neutrino oscillations in vacuum are studied as a possible solution of the solar neutrino problem. New constraints on the parameter sn2, characterizing the mixing of the electron neutrino with another active or sterile neutrino, as well…
We present a simple but general treatment of neutrino oscillations in the framework of quantum mechanics using plane waves and intuitive wave packet principles when necessary. We attempt to clarify some confusing statements that have…
The extraction of neutrino oscillation parameters often requires the unambiguous identification of the reaction mechanism to be used for the energy determination. The use of nuclear targets and of beams with broad energy distributions…
