23 S.P.Mikheyev (INR RAS) and A.Yu.Smirnov (ICTP & INR RAS) 23 Dependence on initial condition The picture of adiabatic conversion is universal in terms of variable: There is no explicit dependence on oscillation parameters, density distribution, etc. Only initial value of y 0 is important. survival probability y (distance) resonance layer production point y 0 = - 5 resonance averaged probability oscillation band y 0 < -1 Non-oscillatory conversion y 0 = -1 1 y 0 > 1 Interplay of conversion and oscillations Oscillations with small matter effect Шестые Марковские чтения Adiabatic conversion
