[HTML][HTML] Neutrino mixing and oscillations in quantum field theory: a comprehensive introduction

L Smaldone, G Vitiello - Universe, 2021 - mdpi.com
We review some of the main results of the quantum field theoretical approach to neutrino
mixing and oscillations. We show that the quantum field theoretical framework, where flavor …

Leggett-Garg inequalities in the quantum field theory of neutrino oscillations

M Blasone, F Illuminati, L Petruzziello, L Smaldone - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We investigate Leggett-Garg inequalities for neutrino oscillations in the quantum field
theoretical setting. We derive an exact flavor-mass uncertainty relation and prove that this …

[HTML][HTML] Neutrino oscillations in the interaction picture

M Blasone, F Giacosa, L Smaldone… - The European Physical …, 2023 - Springer
We study the mixing of different kind of fields (scalar in 0+ 1D, scalar in 3+ 1D, fermion in 3+
1D) treating the mixing term as an interaction. To this aim, we employ the usual perturbative …

[HTML][HTML] Time–Energy Uncertainty Relation for Neutrino Oscillations: Historical Development, Applications, and Future Prospects

GG Luciano, L Smaldone - Symmetry, 2023 - mdpi.com
The time–energy uncertainty relation (TEUR) plays a fundamental role in quantum
mechanics, as it allows the grasping of peculiar aspects of a variety of phenomena based on …

Quantum black holes as classical space factories

A Iorio, L Smaldone - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2023 - World Scientific
Space and matter may both be manifestations of a single fundamental quantum dynamics,
as it may become evident during black-hole evaporation. Inspired by the fact that quantum …

Tests of macrorealism in meson oscillation physics

M Blasone, F Illuminati, L Petruzziello, K Simonov… - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
Macrorealism formalizes the seemingly intuitive notion that, in contrast with the principles of
quantum mechanics, a physical system can be in a definite state at any given time and …

Classical space from quantum condensates

A Iorio, L Smaldone - Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the boson transformation method to deal with spontaneous symmetry breaking in
quantum field theory, focussing on how it describes the emergence of extended and …

Non-Abelian gauge structure and flavor mixing in quantum field theory1

M Blasone, L Smaldone, G Vitiello - Journal of Physics …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
The quantum field theory formalism describing the phenomenon of neutrino mixing and
oscillations is reviewed in its essential aspects. The condensate structure of the flavor …

Interactions and oscillations of coherent flavor eigenstates in beta decay

CY Lee - Modern Physics Letters A, 2020 - World Scientific
The theory pioneered by Blasone and Vitiello describes massive neutrinos as generalized
coherent flavor eigenstates within the extended Standard Model. In this paper, we compute …

A note on oscillating neutrino states in quantum field theory

M Blasone, L Smaldone - Modern Physics Letters A, 2020 - World Scientific
In a recent paper [Eur. Phys. J. C 80, 68 (2020)], a definition of oscillating neutrino states in
quantum field theory was proposed. We show that such definition can be derived as a …
