Invisible Labor and the "Ghost Particle": Underground Physics at the Kolar Gold Fields. [PDF]
Ber WissAbstract When cosmic rays—high‐energy particles from outer space—encounter the Earth's atmosphere, they produce particles called neutrinos. To detect them, physicists go underground inside deep mines where the overlying rock can filter out the cosmic‐ray background radiation.

The Relevance of Nuclear Reactions for Standard Solar Models Construction
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 The fundamental processes by which nuclear energy is generated in the Sun have been known for many years. However, continuous progress in areas such as neutrino experiments, stellar spectroscopy and helioseismic data and techniques requires ever more ...

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We evaluate the statistical significance of the 3+1 sterile-neutrino hypothesis using ν e and ν ¯ $$ \overline{\nu} $$ e disappearance data from reactor, solar and gallium radioactive source experiments.

Implications of the Dark-LMA solution for neutrino mass matrices
Nuclear Physics B, 2021 In this work we have re-investigated two different kinds of texture zero ansatz of the low energy neutrino mass matrix in view of the Dark-Large-Mixing-Angle (DLMA) solution of the solar neutrino problem which can arise in the presence of non-standard ...

Neutrinos and Asteroseismology of Stars over the Helium Flash
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The helium flash, occurring in stars of 0.6–2.0 M _⊙ at the end of the red giant branch, is not observable via optical means due to the energy of the process being used to lift the core out of degeneracy.

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 4, Issue 1, December 2023., 2023 Abstract My career has included astrophysics and space physics, always with a theoretical emphasis. My first papers calculated nuclear reaction rates in dense stars, particularly neutron stars, but I branched out to other areas or theoretical astrophysics.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 18, 28 September 2023., 2023 Abstract Despite being widely recognized, the importance of deep layers thermohaline and mixing processes in the ocean circulation and variability is still poorly investigated, especially in the Mediterranean Sea. This limits understanding and parametrizing deep dynamics, which result in evident biases in the global circulation representation by ...

Analysis of Solar Neutrino Data from Super-Kamiokande I and II
Entropy, 2014 We are going back to the roots of the original solar neutrino problem: the analysis of data from solar neutrino experiments. The application of standard deviation analysis (SDA) and diffusion entropy analysis (DEA) to the Super-Kamiokande I and II data ...

The Nature of Massive Neutrinos
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2013 The compelling experimental evidences for oscillations of solar, reactor, atmospheric, and accelerator neutrinos imply the existence of 3-neutrino mixing in the weak charged lepton current.
