We derive the character of neutrino oscillations that results from a model of equivalence principle violation suggested recently by Damour and Polyakov as a plausible consequence of string theory. In this model neutrino oscillations will take place through interaction with a long range scalar field of gravitational origin even if the neutrinos are degenerate in mass. The energy dependence of the oscillation length is identical to that in the conventional mass mixing mechanism. This possibility further highlghts the independence of and need for more exacting direct neutrino mass measurements together with a next generation of neutrinoless double beta decay experiments.

  1. Mass Varying Neutrino Oscillation in Teleparallel Gravity

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Torsion-coupled scalar in teleparallel gravity induces density-dependent neutrino masses that alter MSW resonance and yield constraints on coupling parameters from Super-Kamiokande, Borexino and SNO data.
