Atmospheric neutrinos in Soudan 2.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:11869
The value and zenith angle dependence of the atmospheric neutrino flavor ratio is interpreted as evidence for neutrino oscillations. The latest values from the Soudan 2 detector are presented. From 4.2 kt-years fiducial exposure, Soudan 2 measures R = 0.66 {+-} 0.11(stat) + 0.05--0.06(syst). Using a subset of the data with the best angular resolution, they plot the L/E distribution and use this to find the allowed region in oscillation parameter space. Their fit suggests that delta m-squared is greater than 10{sup {minus}3} eV{sup 2} at 90% CL.
