We explore the implications of imposing the constraint that two neutrino flavors (which for definiteness we take to be muon and tau neutrinos) are similarly coupled to the mass basis in addition to the unitarity constraints. Implications of…
Observations of atmospheric neutrinos are usually analyzed using the simplifying approximation that either \(\nu_\mu \leftrightarrow \nu_\tau\) or \(\nu_e \leftrightarrow \nu_\mu\) two-flavor mixing is relevant. Here we instead consider the…
We derive the constraints imposed on neutrino masses and mixing angles by performing a combined analysis of the data from the Los Alamos and the other terrestrial neutrino oscillation experiments with the assumption of the flavor-mixing…
Uncertainties in flavor and mass eigenstates of neutrinos are considered within the majorization approach. Nontrivial bounds reflect the fact that neutrinos cannot be simultaneously in flavor and mass eigenstates. As quantitative measures…
Here we discuss the description of flavor neutrinos produced or detected in processes which involve more than one neutrino. We show that in these cases flavor neutrinos cannot be separately described by pure states, but require a density…
We review the issues associated with the construction of neutrino flavor states. We then provide a consistent proof that the flavor states are approximately well-defined only if neutrinos are ultra-relativistic or the mass differences are…
Whether the neutrino mass spectrum is normal (m_1 < m_2 < m_3) or abnormal (m_3 < m_1 < m_2) remains an open question, but we show that the latter possibility looks quite unnatural when it is related to the lepton flavor mixing matrix U in…
A simple model of the neutrino mixing is considered, which contains only one right-handed neutrino field, coupled via the mass term to the three usual left-handed fields. This is a simplest model that allows for three-flavour neutrino…
If neutrinos have mass, we give reasons for a possible pattern of three (squared) mass eigenvalues: $m_1^2 \simeq (2.8 - 5.8) \, \mbox{(eV)}^2 $, $m_2^2 \simeq 0.01 \, \mbox{(eV)}^2 $, $m_3^2 \simeq (1.5 - 1) \times 10^{-4} \mbox{(eV)}^2 $.…
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…
Certainly one of the most exciting areas of research at present is neutrino physics. The neutrinos are fantastically numerous in the universe and as such they have bearing on our understanding of the universe. Therefore, we must understand…
A neutrino mass dominance quantity is introduced for tagging the neutrino flavor in the phenomenological two-parameter four neutrino mixing matrix with two neutrino mass doublets and thorough maximal neutrino doublet mixing. While there is…
Phenomenological implications of neutrino oscillations implied by recent experimental data on pattern of neutrino mass matrix are disscussed. It is shown that it is possible to have a neutrino mass matrix which shows approximate flavor…
A search for the parameter constraint in the three-parameter empirical mass formula proposed recently for active neutrinos is described. Without any parameter constraint the formula is a formal transformation of three free parameters into…
In this paper, we discuss neutrino mass eigenvalues for four flavor neutrino mixing. An extra mass states, in four flavor mixing and possible various combination of CP violating Majorana phases effects the neutrino mass eigenvalues. We have…
Most of what is known about neutrino masses and mixings results from studies of oscillation phenomena. We focus on those neutrino properties that are not amenable to such studies: $\Sigma $, the sum of the absolute values of the neutrino…
We look at the possibility that appreciable neutrino masses and flavor mixing occur only within material media, driven by an interaction between leptons and a very light scalar particle. Limits are placed on the scalar particle mass and…
To realize the condition of sin^2(2theta_{12})>>sin^2(theta_{13}), we find constraints on flavor neutrino masses M_{ij} (ij=e,\mu,\tau): C1) c_{23}^2 M_{\mu\mu} + s_{23}^2 M_{\tau\tau} \approx 2 s_{23} c_{23}M_{\mu\tau} + M_{ee} and/or C2)…
We present a short review of the present status of the problem of neutrino masses and mixing. The existing experimental results indicate that there are at least four massive neutrinos. We show that only two schemes with mixing of four…
I review the main options one has of introducing mass to neutrinos, including broken R-parity models, as well as the constraints on neutrino properties that follow from astrophysics, cosmology as well as laboratory observations.
