Supernova Neutrino Spectrum with Matter and Spin Flavor Precession Effects
We consider Majorana neutrino conversions inside supernovae by taking into
account both flavor mixing and the neutrino magnetic moment. We study the
adiabaticity of various possible transitions between the neutrino states for
both normal and inverted hierarchy within the various solar neutrino problem
solutions. From the final mass spectrum within diffrent scenarios, we infer the
consequences of the various conversion effects on the neutronization peak, the
nature of final spectra, and the possible Earth matter effect on the final
fluxes. This enable us to check the sensibility of the SN neutrino flux on
magnetic moment interaction, and narrow down possible scenarios which depend
on: the mass spectrum normal or inverted, the solution of the solar neutrino
problem; and the value of MuxB.Comment: 24pages, 7 figure
Atmospheric neutrino oscillations in three-flavor neutrinos
We analyzed the atmospheric neutrino experiments of SuperKamiokande including
zenith angle dependence's using the three-flavor neutrino framework with the
hierarchy m^2_1 \approx m^2_2<<m^2_3. Taking into account the terrestrial,
solar neutrino experimental data and the atmospheric neutrino experiments
including the sub-GeV and multi-GeV data in SuperKamiokande, large angle
solution in the solar neutrino experiments is favored and the range of the mass
parameter Deltam^2_{23} is restricted between 0.08eV^2 - 2eV^2. Allowed regions
of mixing parameters are (theta_{13}<4degree, 27degree<theta_{23}< 32degree)
for Delta m_{23}^2=1eV^2 and (theta_{13}<3degree, 28degree<theta_{23}
<33degree) for Deltam_{23}^2=0.1 eV^2.Comment: 21 pages, LaTe

Neutrino Mass
Neutrinos play a dominant role in both particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. In the our present understanding of the strong, weak, and electromagnetic forces, the group structure of the Standard Model is SU(3)[sub C] [circle times] SU(2)[sub L] [circle times] U(I)[sub EM]. In the Weinberg-Salam-Glashow Standard Electroweak Model, left-handed neutrinos sit in a doublet, while right-handed neutrinos are in a singlet, and therefore do not interact with the other known particles. Also in this model, the neutrinos are intrinsically massless. However, while the W-S-G model provides an amazingly accurate picture of our present cold Universe, It has a number of deficits. The Standard Model does not explain the origin of the group structure, It does not reduce the number of coupling constants required, nor does it offer any prediction for the physical masses of the particles. Thus, it is generally assumed that the Standard Model is but a subset of some larger gauge theory. A wide variety of Grand Unified field Theories (GUTs), Super Symmetric Models (SUSY), and Superstring models have been proposed as the model for this larger structure. In general, these models predict nonzero neutrino masses and contain mechanisms that provide for lepton-number violation. Thus, a variety of new phenomena are predicted, including finite neutrino masses and the possibility that neutrinos can oscillate from one type to another. This report looks at the possibility of detecting neutrino vat mass
