A note on the two-neutrino decay mode of excited nuclear states
The possibility for the excited nuclear states to decay by emission of the neutrino-antineutrino pair in direct competition with electromagnetic decay modes is commented upon.

Do the Solitary Cooled-Down Neutron Stars Spontaneously Disintegrate?
We discuss the possibility for a cooled down and otherwise stable solitary neutron star to make a spontaneous transition to its potential black hole ground state. This fundamental process would mimic a precursorless explosion in which the emitted radiations consisting of the statistical mass spectrum of high-energy neutron-rich nuclei, gamma rays and (anti) neutrinos, would carry away some mass of the star, leaving behind the core of the star in the form of a black hole.

The Neutrino - Its Past, Present and Future
The review consists of two parts. In the first part the critical points in the past, present and future of neutrino physics (nuclear, particle and astroparticle) are reviewed. In the second part the contributions of Yugoslav physics to the physics of the neutrino are commented upon. The review is meant as a first reading for the newcomers to the field of neutrino physics.

Late-Night Thoughts About the Significance of a Small Count of Nuclear or Particle Events
Reconciliation of frequentist and Bayesian approaches to elementary treatment of data in nuclear and particle physics is attempted. Unique procedure to express the significance of a small count in presence of background is henceforth proposed and discussed in some detail.
