“…Along their path towards detectors, neutrinos propagate through the vacuum or matter. For neutrinos traveling in the vacuum, the Schrödinger-like equation describing neutrino oscillations can be solved precisely, resulting in the phase of oscillations [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. However, when neutrinos propagate in the matter, neutrinos flavor change is affected by their forward elastic scattering from solar electrons (i.e., caused by the standard weak interactions).…”
