- neutrinos are created in flavor eigenstates, but these are superpositions of mass eigenstates, so our neutrino is probably in a superposition of 3 close but not equal energies, and each mass eigenvector evolves independently with its own exp(-iEt/ℏ), so we get oscillation between the flavor eigenstates.
