Solar neutrino measurements from 1258 days of data from the Super-Kamiokande detector are presented [? ]. The measurements are based on recoil electrons in the energy range 5.0-20.0 MeV. The measured solar neutrino flux is 2.32 ± 0.03 (stat.) +0.08 −0.07 (sys.) ×10 6 cm −2 s −1 , which is 45.1 ± 0.5 (stat.) +1.6 −1.4 (sys.)% of that predicted by the BP2000 SSM. The day vs night flux asymmetry (Φn − Φ d )/Φaverage is 0.033 ± 0.022 (stat.) +0.013 −0.012 (sys.). The recoil electron energy spectrum is consistent with no spectral distortion (χ 2 /d.o.f. = 19.0/18). The seasonal variation of the flux is consistent with that expected from the eccentricity of the Earth's orbit (χ 2 /d.o.f. = 3.7/7). For the hep neutrino flux, we set a 90% C.L. upper limit of 40 × 10 3 cm −2 s −1 , which is 4.3 times the BP2000 SSM prediction.22 This preprint is almost identical to the report submitted to Physical Review Letter. We have added to this preprint a few tables of

T2K (Tokai to Kamioka) is a long baseline neutrino experiment with the primary goal of measuring the neutrino mixing angle θ 13 . It uses a muon neutrino beam, produced at the J-PARC accelerator facility in Tokai, sent through a near detector complex on its way to the far detector, Super-Kamiokande. Appearance of electron neutrinos at the far detector due to oscillation is used to measure the value of θ 13 .

The T2K experiment is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. Its main goal is to measure the last unknown lepton sector mixing angle θ13θ13 by observing νeνe appearance in a νμνμ beam. It also aims to make a precision measurement of the known oscillation parameters, View the MathML sourceΔm232 and sin22θ23sin22θ23, via νμνμ disappearance studies. Other goals of the experiment include various neutrino cross-section measurements and sterile neutrino searches. The experiment uses an intense proton beam generated by the J-PARC accelerator in Tokai, Japan, and is composed of a neutrino beamline, a near detector complex (ND280), and a far detector (Super-Kamiokande) located 295 km away from J-PARC. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the instrumentation aspect of the T2K experiment and a summary of the vital information for each subsystem
