Maximal neutrino oscillation solution to the solar neutrino problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss a simple predictive solution to the solar neutrino problem based on maximal vacuum neutrino oscillations. The solution can be motivated by the exact parity symmetric model which predicts that the neutrino mass eigenstates are maximal mixtures of ordinary and mirror weak eigen-states (if neutrinos are massive). We show that this proposed solution to the solar neutrino problem is in reasonable agreement with the experiments, and that in the near future this scheme may be either ruled out or tested more precisely as statistics improve for the SAGE and GALLEX experiments. Predictions are also given for the upcoming Superkamiokande, SNO and Borexino experiments.

Bi-maximal Neutrino Mixing Pattern Reexamined
I propose a simple extension of the bi-maximal neutrino mixing pattern, allowing slight coupling between solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations as well as large CP violation. The new scenario is compatible with either the vacuum oscillation solution or the large-angle MSW solution to the solar neutrino problem.

متن کاملBi-Maximal Neutrino Mixing in SO(10)GUT
We find a grand unified SO(10) model which accommodates the bi-maximal neutrino mixing for vacuum-oscillation solutions to the atmospheric and the solar neutrino problems. This model maintains the original SO(10) mass relation between neutrino and up-type quark masses, mν2/mν3 ∼ (mc/mt). The recent data on the atmospheric neutrino from the SuperKamiokande (SuperK) Collaboration [1] have present...
متن کاملIs bi-maximal mixing compatible with the large angle MSW solution of the solar neutrino problem?
It is shown that the large angle MSW solution of the solar neutrino problem with a bi-maximal neutrino mixing matrix implies an energy-independent suppression of the solar νe flux. The present solar neutrino data exclude this solution of the solar neutrino problem at 99.6% CL.
متن کاملNeutrino Oscillations with Four Generations
There have been several experiments 10,11,12,13 which suggest neutrino oscillations. To explain the solar, atmospheric and LSND data within the framework of neutrino oscillations, it is necessary to have at least four kinds of neutrinos. It has been shown in the two flavor framework that the solar neutrino deficit can be explained by neutrino oscillation with the sets of parameters (∆m⊙, sin 2 ...
