On the Mass Eigenstate Purity of B^8 Solar Neutrinos

We give a brief report on our recent paper, hep-ph/0601198, in which we calculate the nu_2 mass eigenstate purity of B^8 solar neutrinos as 91 +/- 2 %.Comment: 3 pages, 2 postscript figures, latex, AIP conference style. PANIC 2005 proceeding

Will gravitational waves confirm Einstein's General Relativity?

Even if Einstein's General Relativity achieved a great success and overcame lots of experimental tests, it also showed some shortcomings and flaws which today advise theorists to ask if it is the definitive theory of gravity. In this proceeding paper it is shown that, if advanced projects on the detection of Gravitational Waves (GWs) will improve their sensitivity, allowing to perform a GWs astronomy, accurate angular and frequency dependent response functions of interferometers for GWs arising from various Theories of Gravity, i.e. General Relativity and Extended Theories of Gravity, will be the ultimate test for General Relativity. This proceeding paper is also a short review of the Essay which won Honorable Mention at the 2009 Gravity Research Foundation Awards.Comment: To appear in Proceedings of the 7th International Conference of Numerical Analysis and Applied Mathematics, Rethymno, Crete (near to Chania), Greece, 18-22 September 200

The Yale Lar TPC

In this paper we give a concise description of a liquid argon time projection chamber (LAr TPC) developed at Yale, and present results from its first calibration run with cosmic rays.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, NuInt07 Conference Proceeding
