Abstract
In this chapter we present basic concepts of neutrino physics. We start with a brief introduction to the standard model electroweak sector, followed by calculations of some relevant neutrino interaction cross sections. We obtain the oscillation formalism from the Dirac equation, alongside with a self-contained derivation of matter effects from the standard model electroweak lagrangian. Some key features of neutrino oscillation phenomenology are discussed as well. We then review the most precise oscillation measurements and finalize with some broad discussion of the current open questions in neutrino physics.
