With a mass at least six orders of magnitudes smaller than the mass of an electron – but non-zero – neutrinos are a clear misfit in the Standard Model of Particle Physics. On the one hand, its tiny mass makes the neutrino one of the most interesting particles, one that might hold the key to physics beyond the Standard Model. On the other hand this minute mass leads to great challenges in its experimental determination. Three approaches are currently pursued: An indirect neutrino mass…

Consequences of Massive Neutrino to Astrophysics and Cosmology
It is now recognized that a neutrino is a massive spin-1/2 particle. Consequently, neutrinoantineutrino pair production and their pair annihilation are theoretically valid processes. The data prove

A neutrino mass model is suggested within an $$SU(4)\otimes U(1)$$SU(4)⊗U(1)-electroweak theory. The smallness of neutrino masses can be guaranteed by a seesaw mechanism realized through Yukawa

This model is reexamine and it is found that hot, warm, and cold dark matter are all possibilities and the number density of sterile neutrinos is proportional to [mu][sup 2]/M so that the energy density today is independent of M, which is crucial in determining the large scale structure of the Universe.
