There are experimentally determined two best-fit points for the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle $\theta_{23}$: $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.413$ (case A) and $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.594$ (case B). In the bipair neutrino mixing scheme, we…
Ruling out the inverted neutrino hierarchy with neutrinoless double beta decay experiments is possible if a limit on the effective mass below the minimal theoretically possible value is reached. We stress that this lower limit depends…

A three-neutrino analysis of oscillation data is performed using the recent, more finely binned Super-K oscillation data, together with the CHOOZ, K2K, and MINOS data. The solar parameters, $\Delta_{21}$ and $\theta_{12}$, are fixed from a…
We propose that leptonic CP violation arises from a breaking of the mu-tau exchange symmetry in the neutrino mass matrix which in turn is indicated by the near maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing and the near zero \theta_{13}. We find that…
The establishment of the neutrino oscillations phenomenon as a solution to both solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies had two consequences: a new oscillation mode, labelled $\mathbf{\theta_{13}}$, and the possibility to observe CP…
