چکیده

An updated analysis of all available neutrino oscillation evidence in Reactor (Kamland, first 145 days of data) and Solar experiments (SK day and night spectra, global rates from Homestake, SAGE and GALLEX) including the SNOCC and NC data is presented. In the framework of two active neutrino oscillations we determine the allowed regions in neutrino parameter space, we obtain, from the Kamland spectral shape and global signal, the following antineutrino best solution parameters, ∆mkl = 7.7 × 10−5eV 2, tan2 θkl = 0.98. The overall effect of the measured observed ratio R ∼ 0.6 is that the LMA region remains the only one which is still favored. Combining Kamland and Solar data and assuming CPT invariance, i.e. the same mass matrix for neutrino and antineutrinos, we obtain the following antineutrino best solution parameters (LMAI solution), ∆m2 = 7.1 × 10−5eV 2, tan2 θ = 0.47. A second solution (LMAII) appears for values ∆m2 = 1.5×10−4eV 2, tan2 θ = 0.48. We determine additionally individual neutrino mixing parameters and their errors from fits to marginal likelihood distributions, the values are compatible with previous results. In both methods, χ2 minimization and marginal likelihood, the combined analysis of solar and Kamland data concludes that maximal mixing is not favored at the ∼ 3σ level at least.

Low Energy Neutrino Physics After SNO and KamLAND

In the recent years important discoveries in the field of low energy neutrino physics (Eν in the ≈ MeV range) have been achieved. Results of the solar neutrino experiment SNO show clearly flavor transitions from νe to νμ,τ . In addition, the long standing solar neutrino problem is basically solved. With KamLAND, an experiment measuring neutrinos emitted from nuclear reactors at large distances,...

Constraints on the Neutrino Parameters from the ‘Rise-up’ in the Boron Neutrino Spectrum at Low Energies

The rise-up in boron neutrino spectrum at low energies has been studied within the framework of ‘pure LMA’ scenario. Indirect bounds on the spectral ‘upturn’ have been obtained from the available solar neutrino data. These bounds have been used to demonstrate the efficacy of the precision measurements of the ‘upturn’ for further constraining the neutrino parameter space allowed by SNO salt phas...

Precision measurement of oscillation parameters with reactors

We review the potential of long and intermediate baseline reactor neutrino experiments in measuring the mass and mixing parameters. The KamLAND experiment can measure the solar mass squared difference very precisely. However it is not at the ideal baseline for measuring the solar neutrino mixing angle. If low-LMA is confirmed by the next results from KamLAND, a reactor experiment with a baselin...
