Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	(ProQuest: ... denotes formulae and/or non-USASCII text omitted; see image) A first result of the search for [nu] ^sub [mu]^ [arrow right] [nu] ^sub e^ oscillations in the OPERA experiment, located at the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory, is presented. The experiment looked for the appearance of [nu] ^sub e^ in the CNGS neutrino beam using the data collected in 2008 and 2009. Data are compatible with the non-oscillation hypothesis in the three-flavour mixing model. A further analysis of the same data constrains the non-standard oscillation parameters [theta] ^sub new^ and ... suggested by the LSND and MiniBooNE experiments. For large ... values (>0.1 eV^sup 2^), the OPERA 90% C.L. upper limit on sin^sup 2^(2[theta] ^sub new^) based on a Bayesian statistical method reaches the value 7.2 × 10^sup -3^.
