Evidence for oscillation of atmospheric neutrinos

Y. Fukuda, +124 more
Abstract: We present an analysis of atmospheric neutrino data from a 33.0 kton yr (535-day) exposure of the Super-Kamiokande detector. The data exhibit a zenith angle dependent deficit of muon neutrinos which is inconsistent with expectations based on calculations of the atmospheric neutrino flux. Experimental biases and uncertainties in the prediction of neutrino fluxes and cross sections are unable to explain our observation. The data are consistent, however, with two-flavor ${\ensuremath{ u}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}\ensuremath{\leftrightarrow}{\ensuremath{ u}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ oscillations with ${sin}^{2}2\ensuremath{\theta}g0.82$ and $5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}l\ensuremath{\Delta}{m}^{2}l6\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1{0}^{\ensuremath{-}3}\mathrm{eV}{}^{2}$ at 90% confidence level.

The Super-Kamiokande detector

S. Fukuda, +186 more
TL;DR: Super-Kamiokande is the world's largest water Cherenkov detector, with net mass 50,000 tons as discussed by the authors, which collected 1678 live-days of data, observing neutrinos from the Sun, Earth's atmosphere, and the K2K long-baseline neutrino beam with high efficiency.

Indications of neutrino oscillation in a 250 km long-baseline experiment.

M. H. Ahn, +98 more
TL;DR: The K2K experiment observed indications of neutrino oscillation after 250 km flight of υμ. as mentioned in this paper The observed number of events in the data corresponding to 4.8 x 1019 protons on target is 56, while 80.1 5.4 + 6.2 is expected.
