T2K Results Restrict Possible Values of Neutrino CP Phase
– Published in Nature, the results are a major step forward in the study of difference between matter and antimatter https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2177-0 The T2K Collaboration has published new results showing the strongest constraint yet on the parameter that governs the breaking of the symmetry between matter and antimatter in neutrino oscillations. Using beams of muon neutrinos…
T2K Run 10 ended with record beam power
T2K ended its 2019-2020 data-taking run on February 12, 2020, with a record beam power of 515 kW stably delivered by the J-PARC Main Ring accelerator. T2K has accumulated a total of 3.64×10^21 protons on target (POT) so far. The protons are produced by the J-PARC Main Ring synchrotron accelerator in Tokai on the east…
Recommendation by the Panel for the future J-PARC Neutrino program
The Panel for the future J-PARC neutrino program announced the recommendation on the strategy for the future neutrino program at J-PARC. The panel members are chosen from the T2K collaboration, the Hyper-K proto-collaboration and the J-PARC accelerator group. The full recommendation can be found here.
