ERRATUM: TIME REVERSAL IN NEUTRINO OSCILLATIONS

Time-to-Space Conversion in Neutrino Oscillations

We study the neutrino oscillation problem in the framework of the wave packet formalism. The neutrino state is described by a packet located initially in a region S (source) and detected in another region D at a distance R from S. We examine how the oscillation probability as a function of variable R can be derived from he oscillation probability as a function of time t, the latter being found ...

Neutrino oscillations

founded in 1739, is an independent organisation whose overall objective is to promote the sciences and strengthen their influence in society. The Academy takes special responsibility for the natural sciences and mathematics, but endeavours to promote the exchange of ideas between various disciplines.

neutrino oscillations

The original B. Pontecorvo idea of neutrino oscillations is discussed. Neutrino mixing and basics of neutrino oscillations in vacuum and in matter are considered. Recent evidences in favour of neutrino oscillations, obtained in the Super-Kamiokande, SNO, KamLAND and other neutrino experiments are discussed. Neutrino oscillations in the solar and atmospheric ranges of the neutrino mass-squared d...

Gravitational Correction in Neutrino Oscillations

Recently, the neutrino oscillation phase due to the presence of gravity is much discussed [1], [2], [3]. If the neutrinos are massive particles and mixed, the neutrino oscillation between different flavor states occurs. Suppose that neutrinos are created as weak flavor eigenstate, say, at ~rA, and propagate to ~rB . The state is a linear superposition of mass eigenstates and each phase of mass ...
