Neutrino Oscillations Due to Nonuniversal Gauge Interactions in the Weak Sector

Abstract

We discuss the structure of the neutrino mass matrix as derived from a nonuniversal electroweak gauge interaction model. We discuss two interesting patterns of neutrino masses. The first pattern is hierarchal which fits the LMA or LOW solutions of solar neutrino data. The second pattern gives rise to inverted mass spectrum which fits the currently not preferred SMA solution. The mechanism for generating a light sterile neutrino mass is interesting and is briefly discussed.
