Matter effects on three-neutrino oscillations

Abstract
We evaluate the influence of coherent forward scattering in matter upon neutrino oscillations in the three-neutrino picture. We write down the exact solution and also approximate first-order solutions that exhibit general features more transparently. Oscillation characteristics in matter that could be observed in deep-mine experiments are discussed and illustrated using an oscillation solution suggested by solar and reactor data.
