If neutrino masses and mixings are suitable to explain the atmospheric and solar neutrino fluxes, this amounts to contributions to FCNC processes, in particular µ → e, γ. If the theory is supersymmetric and the origin of the masses is a seesaw mechanism, we show that the prediction for BR(µ → e, γ) is in general larger than the experimental upper bound, especially if the solar data are explaine...

This model carefully trains people with psychiatric disabilities on a range of skills so they can handle real-world demands before placing them in work and independent living situations.
