Neutrino oscillation scenarios involving large angle $\nu_{\mu} \to \nu_e$ oscillations are disfavoured in the parameter range $\Delta m^2/eV^2 >~ 10^{-3}$ by recent results from the CHOOZ reactor-based $\bar{\nu}_e$ disappearance…

Assuming neutrino oscillations, global analyses of solar data find that the LOW solution is significantly disfavoured, leaving LMA as the best solution. But the preference for LMA rests on three weak hints: the spectrum of earth matter…
