“…Thus, only T3 and T4 can be found in the thyroid vein's blood supply [76]. T3 is more potent than T4, more rapid in its reaction, and may be the active form of excreted T4 that is deiodinized by the target cells [75]. Two general effects of TH are described.…”

We report an improved measurement of νµ disappearance over a distance of 735 km using the MINOS detectors and the Fermilab Main Injector neutrino beam in a νµ-enhanced configuration. From a total exposure of 2.95 × 10 20 protons on target, of which 42% have not been previously analyzed, we make the most precise measurement of ∆m 2 = [2.62 +0.31 −0.28 (stat.)±0.09(syst.)] ×10 −3 eV 2 and constrain the νµ mixing angle sin 2 (2θ) > 0. 75 (90%CL). These values are in agreement with ∆m 2 and sin 2 (2θ) measured for νµ, removing the tension reported in [1]. The CPT symmetry of the SM requires that ν µ and ν µ have the same masses and mixing parameters. In vacuum, the probability P (ν µ → ν µ ) that a ν µ is detected after a distance L as a ν µ (rather than a ν e or ν τ ) must be equal to the corresponding probability P (ν µ → ν µ ) for antineutrinos. For a ν µ with energy E the probability may be written as(1) where ∆m 2 and sin 2 (2θ) are effective parameters that are functions of the angles parameterizing U PMNS and the differences in the squared masses ∆m [15,16]. Muon antineutrino oscillations are described by an equation which has the same form as Eq. 1 with parameters ∆m 2 and sin 2 (2θ). The extended SM predicts ∆m 2 = ∆m 2 and sin 2 (2θ) = sin 2 (2θ) for vacuum oscillations [17,18]. Observation of P (ν µ → ν µ ) = P (ν µ → ν µ ) would therefore be evidence for physics beyond the SM, such as neutrino interactions in the earth's crust that do not conserve lepton flavor.In this Letter we describe a measurement of P (ν µ → ν µ ) conducted over a baseline L = 735 km using a ν µ -enhanced beam with a peak energy of 3 GeV. The beam was produced by directing 120 GeV/c protons from the Fermilab Main Injector onto a graphite target to produce π/K mesons that decay to produce neutrinos. Two magnetic horns focus the mesons, allowing us to control the energy spectrum and ν/ν content of the beam.The neutrino beam is pointed towards two detectors, referred to as Near and Far. The 980 ton Near Detector (ND) measures the ν µ and ν µ content of the beam as a function of energy at a distance of 1.04 km from the π/K production target. The 5.4 kton Far Detector (FD) is located in the Soudan Underground Laboratory, 734 km from the ND, and remeasures the beam composition. The neutrino detectors are steel-scintillator, tracking-sampling calorimeters optimized to identify and measure the energy of muon neutrinos and antineutrinos and reject backgrounds from neutral current and ν e interactions [19]. The detectors are magnetized with an average field of 1.3 T to distinguish ν µ from ν µ based on the charge of the µ produced in weak interactions.We previously reported ν µ oscillations with an energy dependence consistent with Eq. 1 and ∆m 2 = 2.32 +0.12 −0.08 (stat.+syst.) ×10 −3 eV 2 , sin 2 (2θ) In 2009-2010 we collected 1.71 × 10 20 POT in a ν µ -enhanced beam [20] created by reversing the polarity of the horns. The magnetic fields in the FD and ND were also reversed to focus the µ + created in ν µ interactions. These antineutrino d...

Abstract. Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber technology provides unique features in event imaging and calorimetric resolution. These characteristics, combined with a good rejection power and a (virtually) unlimited active mass, make this detector one of the best candidate for the next generation of long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments aimed at precision measurements of the MNPS matrix elements. Up to now the largest LAr-TPC operated is the first semi-module of the ICARUS T600 detector (300 tons of LAr). The scalability of this technology to massive detectors (≥ 5 ktons) is still to be proven. The ArgoNeuT detector, a small LAr-TPC (0.24 ton of active mass) exposed to the NuMI beam at FNAL currently producing the first low-energy neutrino events in a LAr-TPC, is the first step of a staged US program to realize and operate a massive LAr-TPC detector. The proposed MicroBooNE experiment, a LAr-TPC of 100 tons of active mass, to be exposed to the Booster Neutrino Beam and the NuMI beam at FNAL, is the next crucial step of this program. Design details and experimental goals of both experiments are reported in this paper.
