Because the Bd -> J/psi Ks asymmetry determines only sin(2 beta), a discrete ambiguity in the true value of beta remains. This note reviews how the ambiguity can be removed. Extractions of the CKM angle alpha are discussed next. Some of the…
At the previous Venice meeting NO-VE 2008, we discussed possible hints in favor of a nonzero value for the unknown neutrino mixing angle theta(13), emerging from the combination of solar and long-baseline reactor data, as well as from the…
Up to now, future neutrino beam experiments have been designed and optimized in order to look for CP violation, \theta_{13} and the mass hierarchy under the conservative assumption that \theta_{13} is very small. However, the recent results…
We argue that the neutrino oscillation probabilities in matter are best understood by allowing the mixing angles and mass-squared differences in the standard parametrization to `run' with the matter effect parameter $a=2\sqrt{2}G_F N_e E$,…
We perform a global analysis of neutrino oscillation data, including high-precision measurements of the neutrino mixing angle theta_13 at reactor experiments, which have confirmed previous indications in favor of theta_13>0. Recent data…
We introduce a new index of the leptonic CP phase dependence $I_{\rm CP}$ and derive the maximal condition for this index in a simple and general form. $I_{\rm CP}\simeq 100%$ may be realized even in the JPARC experiment. In the case that…
Future neutrino oscillation measurement focus, at first priority, on the discovery of sin^2(2 theta_13) describing the coupling between solar and atmospheric oscillations. In this talk, we briefly discuss the prospects to measure sin^2(2…
The combination of data from long-baseline and reactor oscillation experiments leads to a preference of the leptonic CP phase $\delta_{\rm CP}$ in the range between $\pi$ and $2\pi$. We study the statistical significance of this hint by…
The sensitivity of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) to neutrino oscillation is determined, based on a full simulation, reconstruction, and event selection of the far detector and a full simulation and parameterized analysis…
If the solution to the solar neutrino puzzle falls in the LMA region, KamLAND should be able to measure with good precision the corresponding oscillation parameters after a few years of data taking. Assuming a positive signal, we study…
Systematic analysis of the determination of the value of leptonic CP-violating angle delta and the neutrino mass hierarchy sgn(delta m^2_31) by long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments is presented. We note the difficulty to…
The neutrino mixing angle theta(13) is at the focus of current neutrino research. From a global analysis of the available oscillation data in a 3-neutrino framework, we previously reported [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 141801 (2008)] hints in…
The moderately large measured value of theta13 signals a departure from the approximate two-flavour oscillation framework. As a consequence, the relation between the value of theta23 in nature, and the mixing angle measured in muon neutrino…
Future neutrino-oscillation experiments are expected to bring definite answers to the questions of neutrino-mass hierarchy and violation of charge-parity symmetry in the lepton sector. To realize this ambitious program it is necessary to…
A high-power neutrino superbeam experiment at the ESS facility has been proposed such that the source-detector distance falls at the second oscillation maximum, giving very good sensitivity towards establishing CP violation. In this work,…
With the discovery of a modest size for the mixing angle $\theta_{13} \sim 9^\circ$ by the Daya Bay collaboration at $>$5 sigma (\cite{dayabay}) the science of neutrino oscillations has shifted to explicit demonstration of CP violation and…
I briefly review the source of the so-called intrinsic ambiguity and show how the combination of ``golden'' and ``silver'' channel at the Neutrino Factory can solve the problem, in the absence of other sources of degeneracies. I then…
It is now widely accepted that a new middle baseline disappearance reactor neutrino experiment with multiple detectors could provide a clean measurement of the $\theta_{13}$ mixing angle, free from any parameter degeneracies and…

The precise determination of the leptonic $CP$-phase is one of the major goals for future generation long Baseline experiments. On the other hand, if new physics beyond the Standard Model exists, a robust determination of such a $CP$-phase…
