Abstract
A generation of neutrino experiments have established that neutrinos mix and probably have mass. The mixing phenomenon points to processes beyond those of the Standard Model, possibly at the Grand Unification energy scale. A extensive sequence of of experiments will be required to measure precisely all the parameters of the neutrino mixing matrix, culminating with the discovery and study of leptonic CP violation. As a first step, extensions of conventional pion/kaon decay beams, such as off-axis beams or low-energy super-beams, have been considered. These could yield first observations of ! e transitions at the atmospheric frequency, which have not yet been observed, and a first measurement of 13 . Experiments with much better flux control can be envisaged if the neutrinos are obtained from the decays of stored particles.
