Abstract

It is shown how high energy neutrino beams from very distant sources can be utilized to learn about many properties of neutrinos such as lifetimes, mass hierarchy, mixing, minuscule pseudo-Dirac mass splittings and other exotic properties; in addition, the production mechanism of neutrinos in astrophysical sources can also be elucidated.
