Current unknowns in the three-neutrino framework
2018
Abstract We present an up-to-date global analysis of data coming from neutrino oscillation and non-oscillation experiments, as available in April 2018, within the standard framework including three massive and mixed neutrinos. We discuss in detail the status of the three-neutrino ( 3 ν ) mass-mixing parameters, both known and unknown. Concerning the latter, we find that: normal ordering (NO) is favored over inverted ordering (IO) at 3 σ level; the Dirac CP phase is constrained within ∼ 15 % ( ∼ 9 % ) uncertainty in NO (IO) around nearly-maximal CP-violating values; the octant of the largest mixing angle and the absolute neutrino masses remain undetermined. We briefly comment on other unknowns related to theoretical and experimental uncertainties (within 3 ν ) or possible new states and interactions (beyond 3 ν ).
