A simple closed-form analytic expression for the probability of two-flavour neutrino oscillations in a matter with an arbitrary density profile is derived. Our formula is based on a perturbative expansion and allows an easy calculation of…
Quasielastic antineutrino/proton and neutrino/neutron scatterings can be well approximated by simple formulae, valid around MeV or GeV energies. We obtain a single expression valid in the whole range, and discuss its relevance for studies…
The matter-enhanced oscillations of two neutrino flavors are studied using a uniform semiclassical approximation. Unlike some analytic studies which have focused on certain exactly-solvable densities, this method can be used for an…
Solar neutrino physics enters a stage of precision measurements. In this connection we present a precise analytic description of the neutrino conversion in the context of LMA MSW solution of the solar neutrino problem. Using the adiabatic…
We study the effect of the matter term on the evolution of the solar neutrinos when the neutrino parameters are those of the `just-so' case. The extreme non-adiabatic effects at the edge of the sun reduce the expression for the survival…
The MSW (Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein) effect is the adiabatic or partially adiabatic neutrino flavor conversion in medium with varying density. The main notions related to the effect, its dynamics and physical picture are reviewed. The…
The analogy between supersymmetric quantum mechanics and matter-enhanced neutrino oscillations is exploited to obtain exact solutions for a class of electron density profiles. This integrability condition is analogous to the…
Exact analytical expressions in terms of generalized confluent hypergeometric functions for the transition amplitudes of neutrino oscillations in presence of matter are computed for an arbitrary number of species. The density of matter is…
Inspired by the atmospheric multi-GeV neutrino data, we consider neutrino flavor mixing matrices which are maximal in a $2\times 2$ subsector. This condition is a strong restriction: the full matrix including complex phases depends…
Current solar, atmospheric, and reactor neutrino data still allow oscillation scenarios where the squared mass differences are all close to 10^-3 eV^2, rather than being hierarchically separated. For solar neutrinos, this situation…
We discuss in detail solar neutrino oscillations with \delta m^2/E in the range [10^-10,10^-7] eV^2/MeV. In this range, which interpolates smoothly between the so-called ``just-so'' and ``Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein'' oscillation regimes,…
We suggest that the presence of a quantum gravity induced minimal length can be explored using neutrino oscillation probabilities. Neutrinos seem ideally suited for this investigation because they can propagate freely over large distances…
The level-crossing probability, local and global adiabaticity conditions are discussed for 2-flavour neutrino oscillations in matter with arbitrary mixing angle $\theta$. Different approximations for the survival probability of supernova…
We propose a simple prescription to calculate the solar neutrino survival probability P_{ee} in the quasivacuum oscillation (QVO) regime. Such prescription is obtained by matching perturbative and exact analytical results, which effectively…
Within a conventional Hamiltonian description, we find accurate closed-form expressions for the oscillation probabilities of three coupled neutrinos propagating in matter. Subtle cancelations that occur in coefficients of our formulation…
We reexamine the constraints on mixing between electron and muon or tau neutrinos from shock-reheating and r-process nucleosynthesis in supernovae. To this end neutrino flavor evolution is described by nonlinear equations following from a…
Matter effects on the mixing of the neutrinos mass eigenstates, also know as the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein effect, seem to be well established in describing the propagation of the neutrino from the source to detecting devices. These…
We reexamine the conventional physical description of the neutrino evolution inside the Sun. We point out that the traditional resonance condition has physical meaning only in the limit of small values of the neutrino mixing angle,…
Neutrinos propagate in astrophysical and cosmological environments modifying their flavor in intriguing ways. The study of neutrino propagation in media is based on the mean-field, extended mean-field and Boltzmann equations. We summarise…
To describe possible effects of medium, besides the hamiltonian introduced by Mikheev, Smirnov and Wolfenstein (MSW), in principle, there may exist new terms in the evolution equation for the neutrino oscillation due to the environment.…
