Proof that neutrino flavor oscillation implies nonzero neutrino mass?

[QUOTE="George Jones, post: 6548517, member: 31570"] Isn't this the way physics usually proceeds? Let ##T## be a particular theory, and ##E## be a particular experiment result. Now suppose that it can be show that ##T \Rightarrow E##. If an actual experiment is performed and ##E## is the result, we take this as evidence for, but not proof of, ##T##. Theories involving massive neutrinos predict oscillations, which predict experiment results ##E_i##. Actual experiments produce some of these ##E_i##, which we take as evidence that (at least some) neutrinos have mass. [/QUOTE]
