超级神冈实验

The Super-Kamiokande Experiment

C. W. Walter

摘要:

Super-Kamiokande是位于东京大学宇宙射线研究所神冈天文台的50千吨水切伦科夫探测器。它被设计用来研究中微子振荡和进行核子衰变的研究。超级神冈实验始于1996年,在随后的十年运行中,在大气和太阳中微子振荡领域产生了极其重要的结果,同时对核子衰变和暗物质的存在以及中微子的天体物理来源设定了严格的限制。也许最关键的是,超级神冈首次明确地表明中微子有质量并经历味振荡。本章将总结已发表的实验科学成果,特别强调大气中微子的结果。

英文摘要:

Super-Kamiokande is a 50 kiloton water Cherenkov detector located at the Kamioka Observatory of the Institute for Cosmic Ray Research, University of Tokyo. It was designed to study neutrino oscillations and carry out searches for the decay of the nucleon. The Super-Kamiokande experiment began in 1996 and in the ensuing decade of running has produced extremely important results in the fields of atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations, along with setting stringent limits on the decay of the nucleon and the existence of dark matter and astrophysical sources of neutrinos. Perhaps most crucially, Super-Kamiokande for the first time definitively showed that neutrinos have mass and undergo flavor oscillations. This chapter will summarize the published scientific output of the experiment with a particular emphasis on the atmospheric neutrino results.
