Summary Consistent picture: interpretation of all * the results in terms of vacuum mixing of three massive neutrinos LSND ? Two effects are important for the interpretation (at the present level of accuracy): vacuum oscillations, adiabatic conversion (MSW). Oscillations in matter (multilayer medium) ~ 1s Next level: sub-leading effects related to 1-3 mixing (and CP) require more involved study New oscillation effects new matter effects nonlinear neutrino transformations Oscillograms – neutrino images of the Earth: useful tool, method of measurements? Still debates on theory of neutrinos oscillations experimental tests: Solar vs KamLAND

51
Attenuation effect The width of the first peak d < ln E/DE
Attenuation factor F ln is the oscillation length The sensitivity to remote structures is suppressed: Effect of the core of the Earth is suppressed Small structures at the surface can produce stronger effect d, km The better the energy resolution, the deeper penetration
