摘要
We show that the L/E-flatness of the electron-like event ratio in the Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino data implies the equality of the expectation values for the muon and tau neutrino masses. We establish this result by obtaining a set of three constraints on the neutrino-oscillation mixing matrix as contained in the indicated flatness. The resulting 3 x 3 neutrino-oscillation matrix depends only on one angle. A remarkable result that follows directly from this matrix is the consistency between the mixing angles observed by LSND and Super-Kamiokande. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
