At the end of the 2011 run, the CERN CNGS neutrino beam has been briefly operated in lower intensity mode with ∼1012 p.o.t./pulse and with a proton 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 allowed a very accurate time-of-flight measurement of neutrinos from CERN to LNGS on an event-by-event basis. The ICARUS...
The OPERA Collaboration (2011) [1] has reported evidence of superluminal νμ propagation between CERN and the LNGS. Cohen and Glashow (2011) [2] argued that such neutrinos should lose energy by producing photons and e+e− pairs, through Z0 mediated processes analogous to Cherenkov radiation. In terms of the parameter δ≡(vν2−vc2)/vc2, the OPERA result corresponds to δ≈5⋅10−5. For this value (note that...
