We discuss the potential of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) to constraint the four--neutrino mixing schemes favoured by the results of all neutrino oscillations experiments. Our results show that some information on the value of $cos^2(vartheta_{23}) cos^2(vartheta_{24})$ can be obtained by the first SNO measurement of the CC ratio, while considerable improvement on the knowledge of this mixing will be achievable after the measurement of the NC/CC ratio.

The prospects of measuring the leptonic angles and CP-odd phases at a {em neutrino factory} are discussed in the scenario of three active plus one sterile neutrino. We consider the $ u_mu raw u_e$ LSND signal. Its associated large mass difference le ads to observable neutrino oscillations at short ($sim 1$ km) baseline experiments. Sensitivities to the leptonic angles down to $10^{-3}$ can be easily achieved with a 1 Ton detector. Longer baseline experiments ($sim 100$ km) with a 1 Kton detector can provide very clean tests of CP-violation especially through tau lepton detection.

Neutrino oscillations provide an unique opportunity to probe physics beyond the Standard Model. Fermilab is constructing two new neutrino beams to provide a decicive test of two of the recent positive indications for neutrino oscillations: MiniBOONE experiment will settle the LSND controversy, MINOS will provide detailed studies of the region indicated by the SuperK results.
In the last decades, a very important breakthrough has been brought in the elementary particle physics by the discovery of the phenomenon of the neutrino oscillations, which has shown neutrino properties beyond the Standard Model. But a full understa nding of the various aspects of the neutrino oscillations is far to be achieved. In this paper the theoretical background of the neutrino oscillation phenomenon is described, referring in particular to the paradigmatic models. Then the various techniques and detectors which studied neutrinos from different sources are discussed, starting from the pioneering ones up to the detectors still in operation and to those in preparation. The physics results are finally presented adopting the same research path which has crossed this long saga. The problems not yet fixed in this field are discussed, together with the perspectives of their solutions in the near future.
We study the physics reach of the long-baseline oscillation analysis of the DUNE experiment when realistic simulations are used to estimate its neutrino energy reconstruction capabilities. Our studies indicate that significant improvements in energy resolution compared to what is customarily assumed are plausible. This improved energy resolution can increase the sensitivity to leptonic CP violation in two ways. On the one hand, the CP-violating term in the oscillation probability has a characteristic energy dependence that can be better reproduced. On the other hand, the second oscillation maximum, especially sensitive to $delta_{CP}$, is better reconstructed. These effects lead to a significant improvement in the fraction of values of $delta_{CP}$ for which a $5 sigma$ discovery of leptonic CP-violation would be possible. The precision of the $delta_{CP}$ measurement could also be greatly enhanced, with a reduction of the maximum uncertainties from $26^circ$ to $18^circ$ for a 300~MW$cdot$kt$cdot$yr exposure. We therefore believe that this potential gain in physics reach merits further investigations of the detector performance achievable in DUNE.
In this work we analyze quantum decoherence in neutrino oscillations considering the Open Quantum System framework and oscillations through matter for three neutrino families. Taking DUNE as a case study we performed sensitivity analyses for two neut rino flux configurations finding limits for the decoherence parameters. We also offer a physical interpretation for a new peak which arises at the $ u_{e}$ appearance probability with decoherence. The best sensitivity regions found for the decoherence parameters are $Gamma_{21}le 1.2times10^{-23},text{GeV}$ and $Gamma_{32}le 7.7times10^{-25},text{GeV}$ at $90%$ C. L.
