Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the ICARUS detector at the CNGS beam

Antonello, M., Aprili, P., Baibussinov, B. et al.

Understand

The CERN-SPS accelerator has been briefly operated in a new, lower intensity neutrino mode with ~10^12 p.o.t.

/pulse and with a beam structure made of four LHC-like extractions, each with a narrow width of 3 ns, separated by 524 ns.
This very tightly bunched beam structure represents a substantial progress with respect to the ordinary operation of the CNGS beam, since it allows a very accurate time-of-flight measurement of neutrinos from CERN to LNGS on an event-to-event basis.
The ICARUS T600 detector has collected 7 beam-associated events, consistent with the CNGS delivered neutrino flux of 2.2 10^16 p.o.t.
