The Present and Future of Long Baseline Neutrino Oscillations with T2K and DUNE, Alexander Himmel, Duke
Neutrinos oscillate among flavors as they travel because a neutrino of a particular flavor is a also a superposition of multiple neutrinos with slightly different masses. The interferometric nature of oscillations allows this mixing the be measured, but it requires powerful neutrino sources and massive detectors. T2K, with the J-PARC neutrino beam and Super-Kamiokande as far detector, uses a...
