Experimental and theoretical works on neutrino oscillations have been recently boosted by new and sometimes unanticipated results from flavor transition searches with solar, atmospheric, and accelerator neutrino beams. In particular, the Super-Kamiokande experiment has found robust evidence for muon flavor disappearance in atmospheric neutrinos, with a preference for νμ → ντ transitions. The long-standing evidence for electron flavor disappearance in solar neutrinos (νe → νX) has been confirmed, although the specific oscillation mechanisms remain elusive. Weaker evidence for νμ → νe transitions has also been found in accelerator searches. These results globally suggest that all three active neutrinos νe,μ,τ (and possibly additional sterile neutrinos νs) have mass and are mixed, although an unambiguous theoretical pattern for the neutrino mass matrix has not yet emerged. An attempt is made to highlight the relevant issues in this growing and rapidly evolving field of research.
