abstract

The latest data from the T2K and \nova experiments show a tension in their preferred values of the oscillation parameters. In this work, we try to identify the source of the tension between the data from these two experiments. An analysis of their data from various channels (individually, and combined) shows that the tension arises primarily from the $\nu_e$ appearance data, and is compounded by the $\bar{\nu}_\mu$ disappearance data. We provide an explanation for the tension based on parameter degeneracies. Apart from the analysis with the standard matter effect, we also analyse the data with the vacuum oscillation hypothesis. We find that vacuum oscillations fit the data as well as matter effects do; and also reduce the tension between the two experiments. We have also done a study of the future run of NO$\nu$A, T2K and DUNE in the context of resolving this tension.

  1. Interplay of CPT-Violating and CPT-Conserving Lorentz Invariance Violation at DUNE

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Combined CPT-violating and CPT-conserving Lorentz-invariance-violation parameters suppress DUNE's CP-violation sensitivity below 3σ over much of the δ_CP range and introduce parameter degeneracies that complicate δ_CP...

  2. Enhancing the sensitivity to neutrino oscillation parameters using synergy between T2K, NO$\nu$A and JUNO

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Simulated JUNO data can break the NOvA hierarchy–CP degeneracy, and whether the T2K–NOvA tension persists depends on the true mass ordering: it disappears if the ordering is inverted and survives if normal.
