چکیده

Super-Kamiokande has measured the solar neutrino flux using elastic neutrino-electron scattering in water. The measured flux is 2.32 ± 0.03(stat) −0.07(syst)×10 /(cms) based on the energy range of 5 to 20 MeV for the recoiling electron. The time-dependence and energy spectrum of the recoiling electrons were studied to search for two-neutrino oscillation signatures. The absence of either significant zenith angle flux variation or distortions of the recoil electron spectrum places strong constraints on neutrino mass difference and mixing. In combination with the flux measurement, two allowed regions at large mixing are found.

Solar Neutrino Precision Measurements using all 1496 Days of Super-Kamiokande-I Data

The results of the entire Super-Kamiokande-I solar neutrino data are presented. The measured interaction rate is 47±2% of the rate expected by the standard solar model and 133±5% of the rate implied by the SNO chargedcurrent interaction rate. There is no evidence for spectral distortion or a time dependent neutrino flux. Together with the rates of other experiments, the Super-Kamiokande results...

Astroparticle physics with solar neutrinos

Solar neutrino experiments observed fluxes smaller than the expectations from the standard solar model. This discrepancy is known as the "solar neutrino problem". Flux measurements by Super-Kamiokande and SNO have demonstrated that the solar neutrino problem is due to neutrino oscillations. Combining the results of all solar neutrino experiments, parameters for solar neutrino oscillations are o...

Super Kamiokande results: atmospheric and solar neutrinos

Atmospheric neutrino and solar neutrino data from the first phase of Super-Kamiokande (SKI) are presented. The observed data are used to study atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations. Zenith angle distributions from various atmospheric neutrino data samples are used to estimate the neutrino oscillation parameter region. In addition, a new result of the L/E measurement is presented. A dip in...

Results from Super-kamiokande

The results from Super-Kamiokande on atmospheric neutrinos and solar neutrinos are presented. The contained event analysis of atmospheric neutrinos shows a small value of p/e ratio and a large asymmetry in the zenith angle distribution. A distortion of zenith angle distribution is observed in the upward-through-going muons resulting from atmospheric neutrino interactions in the rock surrounding...

New Results from Super-k and K2k

This paper summarizes recent (as of SSI-02, in some cases updated in November, 2002) results from the Super-Kamiokande and K2K experiments. The interpretation of Super-Kamiokande results on atmospheric and solar neutrinos provides strong evidence for neutrino oscillations, hence non-zero neutrino mass. While statistics are still limited, K2K data are consistent with Super-Kamiokande results on ...
