Recent neutrino oscillation results from the Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) experiment, Clarence Wret, University of Rochester

3:30 pm Zoom

The T2K experiment measures long baseline neutrino oscillations and is based in Japan. It uses an intense (anti-)neutrino beam produced at J-PARC, with the beam measured by a suite of near detectors close to the source, and a large 50kt far detector 295km from the source. T2K has made precision measurements of neutrino oscillations, contributed to better understanding of neutrino interactions, and searched for exotic phenomena—including the discovery of electron neutrino appearance, and producing world-leading constraints on neutrino oscillation parameters. Most recently, T2K has seen indications of CP violation in neutrinos in the PMNS description of neutrino oscillations, with approximately 1/3rd of its allocated data. This talk will focus on recent neutrino oscillation results, and outline the next-generation upgrades to the experiment and its analyses.
