Narrowing of the neutrino light curve in the OPERA experiment

In the OPERA experiment, the time of arrival of the neutrino light curve at LNGS is defined by a best-fit to the generating proton PDF at CERN. By a two parameter matched filtering procedure, we determine that the OPERA neutrino light curve is narrower by about 0.4-0.5% relative to the proton PDF. T...

description In the OPERA experiment, the time of arrival of the neutrino light curve at LNGS is defined by a best-fit to the generating proton PDF at CERN. By a two parameter matched filtering procedure, we determine that the OPERA neutrino light curve is narrower by about 0.4-0.5% relative to the proton PDF. The results indicate as yet undetermined physics in the creation of neutrinos in CERN and a reduced significance of the OPERA detection to less than 4 $\sigma.$
