The three-flavor neutrino oscillation model describes the well-studied phenomenon of neutrinos produced in association with one charged lepton: electron, muon, or tau, and then later detected in association with a possibly different charged…
I will first give a brief but comprehensive review of the status of our knowledge in neutrino physics. With reference to a not too far future I will then discuss the perspectives that appear to me to be most important and promising.
I summarize the status of three--neutrino oscillations that follow from combining the relevant world's data. The discussion includes the small parameters Delta_m-sol/Delta_m-atm and \sin^2\theta_{13}, which characterize the strength of CP…
