Experimental results on neutrino oscillations
The phenomenon of neutrino oscillation has been firmly established: neutrinos change their flavour in their path from their source to observers. This paper is dedicated to the description of experimental results in the oscillation field, of their present understanding and of possible future developments in the experimental neutrino oscillation physics.
متن کاملRecent Results on Neutrino Oscillations
This article reviews the many new results from neutrino oscillation searches which were presented at ICHEP '98. Exciting indications of neutrino oscillations have been seen in the solar neutrino deficit, atmospheric neutrino deficit and LSND excess. These indications and reported limits on oscillations are considered. Attempts to develop a theory which addresses all of the neutrino oscillation ...
متن کاملMACRO results on atmospheric neutrino oscillations
A high energy primary cosmic ray interacts in the upper atmosphere producing a large number of pions and kaons, which decay yielding muons and muon neutrinos; the muons decay generating muon and electron neutrinos. These neutrinos are produced in a spherical shell at 10 − 20 km above ground and travel towards the Earth. The νμ can be detected by an underground experiment as muons, after their c...
متن کاملNew MACRO results on atmospheric neutrino oscillations
The final results of the MACRO experiment on atmospheric neutrino oscillations are presented and discussed. The data concern different event topologies with average neutrino energies of ∼ 3 and ∼ 50 GeV. Multiple Coulomb Scattering of the high energy muons in absorbers was used to estimate the neutrino energy of each event. The angular distributions, the L/Eν distribution, the particle ratios a...
متن کاملNeutrino oscillations: Recent results and future directions
Abstract. A brief introduction to the phenomena of vacuum neutrino oscillations and resonant flavour conversion is presented with a heavy pedagogic leaning. Variants of these ideas, e.g., neutrino helicity flip in a magnetic field, violation of the equivalence principle, etc. are outlined. A few vexing issues pertaining to the quantum mechanics of neutrino oscillations are discussed. Expectatio...
