Abstract

We are interested to study the effect of neutrino spin precessions, FCNC interactions in matter as expected e.g. in supersymmetric models vithsbroken. R-parity on the solar and atmospheric neutrinos observation and on supernova physics such as explosion mechanism and observation of neutrino signals, heavy elements nucleosynthesis in supernova, motivated by the fact that any indication of such new effect could be the clue to the physics beyond the standard model of particle physics.
