Atmospheric neutrinos in ice and measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters
A large number of experiments of different types have provided strong evidence for neutrino oscillations and thus for physics beyond the Standard Model (see Ref. [1] and references therein). Cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere give a natural source of neutrinos. These atmospheric neutrinos in the GeV range have been used by the Super-Kamiokande (SK) detector to provide evidence for neutri...
متن کاملNeutrino Decay and Atmospheric Neutrinos
We reconsider neutrino decay as an explanation for atmospheric neutrino observations. We show that if the mass-difference relevant to the two mixed states νμ and ντ is very small (< 10 −4 eV), then a very good fit to the observations can be obtained with decay of a component of νμ to a sterile neutrino and a Majoron. We discuss how the K2K and MINOS long-baseline experiments can distinguish the...
متن کاملAtmospheric neutrinos and discovery of neutrino oscillations
Neutrino oscillation was discovered through studies of neutrinos produced by cosmic-ray interactions in the atmosphere. These neutrinos are called atmospheric neutrinos. They are produced as decay products in hadronic showers resulting from collisions of cosmic rays with nuclei in the atmosphere. Electron-neutrinos and muon-neutrinos are produced mainly by the decay chain of charged pions to mu...
متن کاملAtmospheric neutrino oscillations in three-flavor neutrinos
We analyzed the atmospheric neutrino experiments of SuperKamiokande including zenith angle dependence’s using the three-flavor neutrino framework with the hierarchy m1 ≈ m 2 2 ≪ m 2 3. Taking into account the terrestrial, solar neutrino experimental data and the atmospheric neutrino experiments including the sub-GeV and multi-GeV data in SuperKamiokande, large angle solution in the solar neutri...
متن کاملNeutrino Magnetic Moments and Atmospheric Neutrinos
I review the history on neutrino magnetic moments and apply the neurino magnetic moment idea to constrain its bound from Super-Kamiokande neutrino oscillation data.
