摘要：We study how much the unique ability of the OPERA experiment to directly detect nt can help
in probing new, non-standard contact interactions of the third family of neutrinos. We perform
a combined analysis of future, high-statistics MINOS and OPERA data. For the case of nonstandard
interactions in nm to ne transitions we also include the impact of possible Double Chooz
data. In all cases we find that the nt sample of OPERA is too small to be statistically significant.
OPERA’s real benefit for this measurement lies in its very high neutrino energy and hence very
different L/E compared to MINOS.
