Search for light sterile neutrinos with two neutrino beams at MicroBooNE
A broad experimental programme has shown that the three quantum-mechanical eigenstates of neutrino flavour, νe, νμ and ντ,…
Soliton dynamics and stability in resonant nonlinear Schrödinger systems with cubic quintic effects via enhanced modified extended tanh function method
Our goal in this part is to get the next form of solutions for Eq. (1): $$\begin{aligned} R(x,y,z,t)=R(\xi…
