In the formalism used to construct the Standard Model (SM), the existence of a non- trivial neutrino mixing and massive neutrinos implies that the left-handed (LH) flavour neutrino fields ⌫lL(x), which enter into the expression for the lepton current in the charged current weak interaction Lagrangian, are linear combinations of the fields of three (or more)1 Motivations neutrinos ⌫ , and having Goals masses m = 0: j j 6

This value is in the ballpark of the o2cial SK fit Of course, the phases2 are determined also by the squared-mass2 differences ∆mkj , results quoted in [46, 47], namely: IO NO =4.3 (for SK data at fixed ✓13) and IO NO =5.2 (for SK + T2K which are physical constants. The amplitude of the2 oscillations is specified only data at fixed ✓13). By excluding SK atmospheric data in our fit, we find IO NO =1.1, in qualitative accord with the ocial T2K data analysis constrained by reactor data [42]. Concerning SK atmospheric data, it has been emphasized [9, 11, 12] that the complete set of bins and systematics [46, 47] can only be handled within the collaboration, especially when ⌫/⌫ or multi-ring event features are involved. Nevertheless, we think it useful to continue updating our analysis of reproducible SK samples, namely, sub/multi-GeV single-ring (e-like and µ-like) and stopping/through-going (µ-like) distributions. These samples encode interesting (although entangled and smeared) pieces of information about subleading e↵ects driven by known and unknown oscillation parameters, see e.g. [2]; in particular, they contributed to early hints of nonzero ✓13 [48]. At present, we trace the atmospheric hint of NO to e-like events, especially multi-GeV, in qualitative agreement with [49].1 Summarizing, the SK(+T2K) ocial results in [42, 46, 47] and ours in Eq. (9) suggest, at face value, that global 3⌫ oscillation analyses may have reached an overall 2 sensitivity to the mass ordering, with a preference for NO driven by atmospheric data and corroborated by accelerator⇠ data, together with reactor constraints. This intriguing indication, although still tentative, is generally supported by cosmological data (see Sec. II C) and thus warrants a dedicated discussion in the context of absolute ⌫ mass observables (see Sec. III).

1 Note, however, that weaker results for the IO-NO di↵erence (< 1), with or without atmospheric data, have been found in [11]. ⇠ Unknowns in Neutrino

We have to add that in addition to the Planck Collaboration also the South Pole Telescope (SPT) Collaboration released in December 2012 a fit analysis that indicated a preferred value for the sum of the light neutrino, being the latter ⌃ m =0.32 0.11 i ± eV, with a 3 detection of positive neutrino mass in the range [0.01, 0.63]eV at 99.7 % C.L. [35]. Clearly, all these bounds are not definitive and they will be improved by current or forthcoming observations. For instance, the EUCLID survey [36], approved in 2012, will be able most likely to measure the neutrino mass sum at the 0.01 eV level of precision by combining their data with measurements of the CMB anisotropies by the Planck mission [33]. Such an outstanding precision will be able to provide unique information on, and possibly determine, the absolute scale of neutrino masses [37]: the minimum of the sum compatible with current neutrino oscillation data being ⌃ =5.87 10 2 min ⇥ eV for a normal hierarchical (NH) spectrum and ⌃ =9.78 10 2 eV for an inverted min ⇥ hierarchical spectrum (IH). This information could be used in synergy with ()0⌫- decay data to test the nature —Dirac or Majorana— of massive neutrinos.

Fundamental unknowns in Neutrino Physics:

• The absolute neutrino mass, • Ordering (Normal or Inverted), • CP violation in the leptonic sector, • The nature: Dirac or Majorana.

Μulti-messenger astronomy can:

• disentangle or further constrain the neutrino mass ordering. • provide salient information on the absolute neutrino masses.

Future experiments can be useful also in testing independently the cosmological bounds on neutrino absolute masses.

However, this requires high resolution timing and a significant increase in the combined fiducial volume compared to the current Cherenkov water detectors.

Conversely one can use future results on neutrino properties to provide detailed information about astrophysical sources emitting simultaneously GWs, photons and neutrinos, and possibly lower uncertainties in the emitted multi-messenger signal from the source.
