متن کاملHow to do a nue->numu measurement in a MINOS-like Detector
Magnetized steel-scintillator tracking calorimeter detector has been considered as a candidate of detectors to study νe → νμ oscillation (“golden”) channel in a Neutrino Factory. The MINOS detector is based on the technology and has been observing atmospheric neutrinos since 2003, as well as beam neutrinos since 2005. The performance of muon neutrino detection by the MINOS detector is discussed...
متن کاملNeutrino-induced muons observed with MINOS
The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) experiment’s Far Detector has been operational since July 2003, taking cosmic ray and atmospheric neutrino data from its location in the Soudan Mine Underground Lab. Numerous neutrino-induced muons have been observed. The detector’s magnetic field allows the first determination by a large underground detector of muon charge and thus neutrino...
متن کاملInitial Results for Electron-Neutrino Appearance in MINOS
MINOS is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment designed to make precision measurements of the neutrino mixing parameters associated with the atmospheric neutrino mass splitting. Using a neutrino beam from the Main Injector (NuMI) facility at Fermilab, it compares the neutrino energy spectrum for neutrino interactions observed in two large detectors located at Fermilab and in the Souda...
متن کاملNew Results from the MINOS Experiment
In this paper we present the latest results from the MINOS Experiment. This includes a new measurement of the oscillation parameters (|∆m232|, sin 2(2θ23)) based on 3.36 × 10 protons-on-target of data and a first analysis of neutral current events in the Far Detector. The prospects for νe appearance measurements in MINOS are also discussed.
متن کاملThe MINOS Detectors
The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) experiment’s primary goal is the precision measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters in the atmospheric neutrino sector. This long-baseline experiment uses Fermilab’s NuMI beam, measured with a Near Detector at Fermilab, and again 735 km later using a Far Detector in the Soudan Mine Underground Lab in northern Minnesota. The detecto...
