We study the consequences on the neutrino oscillation parameter space, mixing angle ($tan^2theta$) and vacuum mass difference ($Delta m^2_0$), when mass varying neutrino (MaVaN) models are assumed in a supernova environment. We consider electronic to sterile channels $ u_e rightarrow u_s$ and $bar u_e rightarrow bar u_s$ in two-flavor scenario. In a given model of MaVaN mechanism, we induce a position-dependent effective mass difference, $Delta tilde m^2(r)$, where $r$ is the distance from the supernova core, that changes the neutrino and anti-neutrino flavour conversion probabilities. We study the constraints on the mixing angle and vacuum mass difference coming from r-process and the SN1987A data. Our result is the appearance of a new exclusion region for very small mixing angles, $tan^2theta=10^{-6}-10^{-2}$, and small vacuum mass difference, $Delta m^2_0=~1-20$ eV$^2$, due the MaVaN mechanism.
We show that the measurements of 10 GeV atmospheric neutrinos by an upcoming array of densely packed phototubes buried deep inside the IceCube detector at the South Pole can be used to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy for values of sin^2(2theta1
In this paper, we obtain the light neutrino masses and mixings consistent with the experiments, in the democratic texture approach. The essential ansatz is that $ u_{Ri}$ are assumed to transform as right-handed fields $bf 2_{R} + 1_{R}$ under the $S
We investigate how hypothetical particles - sterile neutrinos - can be produced in the interior of exploding supernovae via the resonant conversion of $bar u_mu$ and $bar u_tau$. The novelty of our treatment lies in the proper account of the resulti
We review how a high-statistics observation of the neutrino signal from a future galactic core-collapse supernova (SN) may be used to discriminate between different neutrino mixing scenarios. Most SN neutrinos are emitted in the accretion and cooling
A detailed discussion is given of the analysis of recent data to obtain improved upper bounds on the couplings $|U_{e4}|^2$ and $|U_{mu 4}|^2$ for a mainly sterile neutrino mass eigenstate $ u_4$. Using the excellent agreement among ${cal F}t$ values
