In this book, we investigate observable consequences of active and sterile neutrinos, in galactic, cluster, and cosmological scales. We assume that sterile neutrnos with masses of order 10's eV, 10's keV, and MeV were formed by oscillation of active neutrinos in the early universe. If sterile neutrinos with mass about 30 eV exist, they affect the structure of galaxies and explain the flatness of their rotation curves. Also, the existence of decaying sterile neutrinos with mass 16-18 keV can simultaneously be the cause of heating at the Milky Way center, the supermassive blackhole mass and velocity dispersion relation, the lack of cooling flow in clusters, and reionization in the universe. Lastly, we make use of the observed 511 keV annihilation flux line at the Milky Way center to constrain properties of sterile neutrinos of MeV mass scale. We also derive a relation among several cluster observables assuming the existence of an active neutrino halo, which agrees with the observational data in 103 clusters.
