Obtaining the large angle MSW solution to the solar neutrino problem in models

Abstract

The large mixing angle (LMA) MSW solution to the solar neutrino problem seems favored by the data at the moment over the small mixing angle (SMA) MSW solution and the vacuum (VAC) solution. In this paper the various main types of models of neutrino masses and mixings are studied from the point of view of how naturally they can give the LMA solution. Special attention is given to a very simple type of "lopsided" SU(5) model.
