Abstract

Some salient and model-independent properties of massive neutrinos will be introduced in this chapter. First of all, we shall summarize current experimental evidence for neutrino oscillations, which point to finite neutrino masses and lepton flavor mixing angles. Then we shall describe how to write out the mass terms of Dirac and Majorana neutrinos, analyze their C, P and T properties, and discuss their electromagnetic properties. The phenomenology of lepton flavor mixing and CP violation, together with the running behaviors of neutrino mass parameters from one energy scale to another, will also be discussed in some detail.
