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.#
#In 1998 the discovery of neutrino oscillation in the atmospheric neutrinos by the Super-Kamiokande experiment led us to a new journey into the fascinating and mysterious world of neutrinos
The experiment shows that researchers can now accurately observe the type of neutrino oscillation that will need to be studied in detail in future experiments aiming to measure CP violation explains Steven Manly professor of physics at the University of Rochester and part of the collaboration.
For that reason the University of Rochester group has focused on understanding these other processes to ensure that what is measured is really the neutrino oscillation they have sought.
