Uncertainties on Atmospheric Neutrino Flux Calculations
The strong evidence of new physics coming from atmospheric neutrino experiments has motivated a series of critical studies to test the robustness of the available flux calculations. In view of a more precise determination of the parameters of new physics, new and more refined flux calculations are in progress. Here we review the most important sources of theoretical uncertainties which affect t...

متن کاملEvaluation of reactor neutrino flux: issues and uncertainties
Evaluation of the reactor νe flux and spectrum is an essential ingredient of their application in the neutrino oscillation studies. Two anomalies, i.e. discrepancies between the observed and expected count rates, are widely discussed at the resent time. The total rate is ∼ 6% lower than the expectation at all distances > 10 m from the reactor. And there is a shoulder (often referred to as “bump...
متن کاملFlux Independent Measurements of Deep Inelastic Neutrino Processes
2 BP The scaling variable v = xy = 2(Ep/M) sin 2 is useful for the description of deep inelastic neutrino-nucleon scattering processes. This variable is determined solely by the momentum and angle of the outgoing lepton. The normalized scattering distribution in this variable is independent of incident lepton energy and flux, provided scale-invariance is valid. The sensitivity to various hypoth...
متن کاملStatistical treatment of detection cross-section uncertainties in the analysis of solar neutrino data
We propose a modification to the standard statistical treatment of the detection cross-section uncertainties in the analysis of solar neutrino data. We argue that the uncertainties of the energy-averaged cross sections of the different neutrino fluxes in the same experiment should be treated as correlated. We show that the resulting allowed regions for the neutrino oscillation parameters are si...
