Among the still unmeasured neutrino properties, the third neutrino mixing angle, theta13, is likely to be the one we will next find out. In this contribution, first a brief summary of the limits and the preliminary measurements of this…
A charged lepton contribution to the solar neutrino mixing induces a contribution to theta_13, barring cancellations/correlations, which is independent of the model building options in the neutrino sector. We illustrate two robust arguments…

We investigate the effects of a nonzero leptonic mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ on the solar neutrino day-night asymmetry. Using a constant matter density profile for the Earth and well-motivated approximations, we derive analytical expressions…
The Daya Bay Collaboration has recently observed neutrino oscillations in the nu_e-bar -> nu_e-bar disappearance channel, indicating that sin^2 theta_13 = 0.024 +(-) 0.005 (1 sigma) and theta_13 = 0 is already excluded at the 5.2 sigma…

We introduce a new texture for neutrino mixing named Tri-Permuting (TP) mixing matrix. This pattern is characterized by maximal solar and atmospheric angles and by a large reactor angle satisfying sin(theta_13)=1/3. The correct lepton…

We review the current-generation short-baseline reactor neutrino experiments that have firmly established the third neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ to be non-zero. The relative large value of $\theta_{13}$ (around 9$^\circ$) has opened…
We consider in details the effects of the 13-mixing (sin^2 theta_{13}) and of the type of mass hierarchy/ordering (sign[ Delta m^2_{13}]) on neutrino signals from the gravitational collapses of stars. The observables (characteristics of the…
The mass matrices of the charged leptons and neutrinos, that had been derived in the framework of a Minimal S_3-invariant Extension of the Standard Model, are here reparametrized in terms of their eigenvalues. The neutrino mixing matrix,…
