Neutrino Oscillations in Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravity

Abstract

Flavor oscillations of neutrinos are analyzed in the framework of Brans-Dicke theory of gravity. We find a shift of quantum mechanical phase of neutrino proportional to $G_N\Delta m^2$ and depending on the parameter $\omega$. Consequences on atmospheric, solar and astrophysical neutrinos are discussed.
