The neutrino oscillation data are well explained by the tri-bimaximal pattern. Recently a paper appeared showing that also the bimaximal pattern could be a very good starting point in order to describe the lepton mixing. In this paper I review both the flavour structures and then I present an explicit model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
There has been a surge of progress and published results in neutrino cross-section physics in recent years. In many cases, absolute differential cross-sections are being measured for the first time and can be compared to interaction models first developed decades ago. These measurements are important input for the next generation of accelerator-based neutrino oscillation experiments where precise understanding of both signal and background channels will be critical to the observation of sub-dominant oscillation effects. This paper discusses recent results from several experiments and describes new experiments currently under construction dedicated to making these measurements with unprecedented precision.

Some theories of new physics accounting for neutrino masses can give rise to a low-energy non-unitary leptonic mixing matrix. It is shown that the CP-asymmetries in the νμ→ντ channel are an excellent probe of such new physics. In adition, we clarify the relationship betweeen our framework and the so called “non-standard neutrino interactions” scenarios: the sensitivities explored here apply as well to such constructions, except for extremely fine-tuned cancellations.
