Phys. Rev. D 57, R1345–R1349 (1998)Testing maximal electron and muon neutrino oscillations with sub-GeV SuperKamiokande atmospheric neutrino data
Motivated by the exact parity model and other theories, the hypothesis that each of the known neutrinos oscillates maximally with a sterile partner has been put forward as an explanation of the atmospheric and solar neutrino anomalies. We provide detailed predictions for muon and electron flux ratios induced in the Kamiokande and SuperKamiokande detectors by sub-GeV atmospheric neutrinos. Several different, carefully chosen cuts on momentum and zenith angle are proposed, emphasizing the role of up-down flux asymmetries. © 1998 The American Physical Society URL:
