Experimental Constraints on Four-Neutrino Mixing
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that at least four massive neutrinos are needed in order to accommodate the evidences in favor of neutrino oscillations found in solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments and in the LSND experiment. Among all four-neutrino schemes, only two are compatible with the results of all neutrino oscillation experiments. These two schemes have a mass spectrum composed of two pairs of neutrinos with close masses separated by the “LSND gap” of the order of 1 eV.

Four-Neutrino Mixing and Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis
We investigate the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis constraints on neutrino mixing in the framework of the two four-neutrino schemes that are favored by the results of neutrino oscillation experiments. We discuss the implications of these constraints for terrestrial short and long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments and we present some possibilities of testing them in these experiments. In partic...
متن کاملNeutrino Mixing , Cp / T Violation and Textures in Four - Neutrino Models
We examine the prospects for determining the neutrino mixing matrix and for observing CP and T violation in neutrino oscillations in four-neutrino models. We focus on a general class of four-neutrino models with two pairs of nearly degenerate mass eigenstates separated by approximately 1 eV, which can describe the solar, atmospheric and LSND neutrino data. We present a general parametrization o...

متن کاملTexture of a Four–Neutrino Mass Matrix
We propose a simple texture of the neutrino mass matrix with one sterile neutrino along with the three standard ones. It gives maximal mixing angles for νe → νS and νμ → ντ oscillations or vice versa. Thus with only four parameters, this mass matrix can explain the solar neutrino anomaly, atmospheric neutrino anomaly, LSND result and the hot dark matter of the universe, while satisfying all oth...
متن کاملHigher Dimensional Models of Light Majorana Neutrinos Confronted by Data
We discuss experimental and observational constraints on certain models of higher Dimensional light Majorana neutrinos. Models with flavor blind brane-bulk couplings plus three or four flavor diagonal light Majorana neutrinos on the brane, with subsequent mixing induced solely by the Kaluza-Klein tower of states, are found to be excluded by data on the oscillations of solar, atmospheric and rea...
