New constraints on muon-neutrino to electron-neutrino transitions in MINOS

This paper reports results from a search for νμ→ν e transitions by the MINOS experiment based on a 7×1020 protons-on-target exposure. Our observation of 54 candidate νe events in the far detector with a background of 49.1±7.0(stat)±2. 7(syst) events predicted by the measurements in the near detector...
