  • We present an updated global analysis of neutrino oscillation data as of September 2024. The parameters $θ_{12}$, $θ_{13}$, $Δm^2_{21}$, and $|Δm^2_{3\ell}|$ ($\ell = 1,2$) are well-determined with relative precision at $3σ$ of about 13\%, 8\%, 15\%, and 6\%, respectively. The third mixing angle $θ_{23}$ still suffers from the octant ambiguity, with no clear indication of whether it is larger or smaller than $45^\circ$. The determination of the leptonic CP phase $δ_{CP}$ depends on the neutrino mass ordering: for normal ordering the global fit is consistent with CP conservation within $1σ$, whereas for inverted ordering CP-violating values of $δ_{CP}$ around $270^\circ$ are favored against CP conservation at more than $3.6σ$. While the present data has in principle $2.5$--$3σ$ sensitivity to the neutrino mass ordering, there are different tendencies in the global data that reduce the discrimination power: T2K and NOvA appearance data individually favor normal ordering, but they are more consistent with each other for inverted ordering. Conversely, the joint determination of $|Δm^2_{3\ell}|$ from global disappearance data prefers normal ordering. Altogether, the global fit including long-baseline, reactor and IceCube atmospheric data results into an almost equally good fit for both orderings. Only when the $χ^2$ table for atmospheric neutrino data from Super-Kamiokande is added to our $χ^2$, the global fit prefers normal ordering with $Δχ^2 = 6.1$. We provide also updated ranges and correlations for the effective parameters sensitive to the absolute neutrino mass from $β$-decay, neutrinoless double-beta decay, and cosmology.
