چکیده

Assuming atmospheric neutrino oscillations with dominant $ transitions , we discuss how subdominant e mixing (within the Chooz reactor bounds) can alter the zenith distributions of neutrino-induced electrons and muons. We isolate two peculiar distortion eeects, one mainly related to e mixing in vacuum and the other to matter oscillations, that may be suu-ciently large to be detected by the SuperKamiokande atmospheric experiment. These eeects (absent for pure two-avor $ transitions) do not vanish in the limit of energy-averaged oscillations.

Zenith distribution of atmospheric neutrino events and electron neutrino mixing

Assuming atmospheric neutrino oscillations with dominant νμ ↔ ντ transitions, we discuss how subdominant νe mixing (within the Chooz reactor bounds) can alter the zenith distributions of neutrino-induced electrons and muons. We isolate two peculiar distortion effects, one mainly related to νe mixing in vacuum and the other to matter oscillations, that may be sufficiently large to be detected by...

Finally Neutrino Has Mass Typeset Using Revt E X 1

The present status of the problem of neutrino mass, mixing and neutrino oscillations is briefly summarized. The evidence for oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos found recently in the Super-Kamiokande experiment is discussed. Indications in favor of neutrino oscillations obtained in solar neutrino experiments and in the accelerator LSND experiment are also considered. Implications of existing ...

Four-neutrino Mixing Typeset Using Revt E X 1

It is shown that at least four massive neutrinos are needed in order to accommodate the evidences in favor of neutrino oscillations found in solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments and in the LSND experiment. Among all four-neutrino schemes, only two are compatible with the results of all neutrino oscillation experiments. These two schemes have a mass spectrum composed of two pairs of neutri...

Effects for atmospheric neutrino experiments from electron neutrino oscillations

The minimal interpretation of the atmospheric neutrino data suggests that the muon neutrino oscillates into another species with a mixing angle close to the maximal π/4. In the Exact Parity Symmetric Model, both the muon and electron neutrinos are expected to be maximally mixed with essentially sterile partners (ν ′ μ and ν ′ e respectively). We examine the impact of maximal νe − ν ′ e oscillat...
