Description
It is shown that the Magnus expansion for the evolution operator,
when implemented in the adiabatic basis, provides a convenient
formalism to find approximate solutions to the problem of three
neutrino oscillations in a medium with an arbitrarily varying density.
This method allows us to incorporate in a simple way the Earth
matter effects on the transition probabilities for neutrinos with a
wide interval of energies, making possible an accurate description
of such effects in the case of solar and atmospheric neutrinos.
