Status of global fits to neutrino oscillations

We review the present status of global analyses of neutrino oscillations, taking into account the most recent neutrino data including the latest KamLAND and K2K updates presented at Neutrino2004, as well as state-of-the-art solar and atmospheric neutrino flux calculations. We give the two-neutrino solar + KamLAND results, and the two-neutrino atmospheric + K2K oscillation regions, discussing in each case the robustness of the oscillation interpretation against departures from the Standard Solar Model and the possible existence of non-standard neutrino physics. Furthermore, we give the best fit values and allowed ranges of the three–flavour oscillation parameters from the current worlds’ global neutrino data sample and discuss in detail the status of the small parameters α ≡ ∆msol/∆matm as well as sin θ13, which characterize the strength of CP violating effects in neutrino oscillations. We also update the degree of rejection of four–neutrino interpretations of the LSND evidence in view of the most recent developments.
