It is by now established that neutrino oscillations occur due to non-zero masses and parameters in the leptonic mixing matrix. The extraction of oscillation parameters may be complicated due to subleading effects such as non-standard…

Present global fits of world neutrino data hint towards non-maximal $\theta_{23}$ with two nearly degenerate solutions, one in the lower octant ($\theta_{23} <\pi/4$), and the other in the higher octant ($\theta_{23} >\pi/4$). This octant…
