Atmospheric Neutrinos and the Oscillations Bonanza
New observations with atmospheric neutrinos from the underground experiments SuperKamiokande, Soudan 2, and MACRO, together with earlier results from Kamiokande and IMB, are reviewed. The most recent observations reconfirm aspects of atmospheric flavor content and of zenith angle distributions which appear anomalous in the context of null oscillations. The anomalous trends, exhibited with high ...
متن کاملAtmospheric Neutrinos and the Oscillations Bonanza
We are lucky, you and I, to be born here on planet Earth and to have as our birthright the unrestricted use of a splendid neutrino beamline. Truly remarkable is that the originating hadronic primary beam, namely the cosmic ray flux of protons and assorted stable nuclei, is isotropic to high degree. Moreover, the beamline target region, which is the terrestrial atmosphere, is very nearly spheric...
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 کاملOscillations of solar and atmospheric neutrinos †
Motivated by recent results from SuperKamiokande, we study both solar and atmospheric neutrino fluxes in the context of oscillations of the three known neutrinos. We aim at a global view which identifies the various possibilities, rather than attempting the most accurate determination of the parameters of each scenario. For solar neu-trinos we emphasise the importance of performing a general an...
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...
