ROCHESTER/STONY BROOK (US)# Scientists have announced the first definitive observation of the transformation of muon neutrinos to electron neutrinos#a type of neutrino oscillation that had never been observed.#
#This discovery of electron neutrino appearance from muon neutrinos by the T2k experiment opens another critical door in our journey to unveil the secrets of our universe.#
In the T2k experiment a muon neutrino beam is produced in the Japan Proton accelerator Research Complex called J-PARC located in Tokai village Ibaraki Prefecture on the east coast of Japan.
