We report measurements of oscillation parameters from ν(μ) and disappearance using beam atmospheric data MINOS. The comprise exposures 10.71×10(20) protons on target in the ν(μ)-dominated beam, 3.36×10(20) ν(μ)-enhanced 37.88 kton yr neutrinos. Assuming identical ν parameters, we measure |Δm2| = (2.41(-0.10)(+0.09))×10(-3) eV2 sin2(2θ) 0.950(-0.036)(+0.035). Allowing independent oscillations, antineutrino (2.50(-0.25)(+0.23))×10(-3) 0.97(-0.08)(+0.03), with minimal change to neutrino parameters.

We measure neutrino charged-current quasielasticlike scattering on hydrocarbon at high statistics using the wideband Neutrinos Main Injector beam with energy peaked 6 GeV. The double-differential cross section is reported in terms of muon longitudinal (p_{∥}) and transverse (p_{⊥}) momentum. Cross contours versus lepton momentum components are approximately described by a conventional generator-based simulation, however, discrepancies observed for momenta above 0.5 GeV/c ranges 3-5 9-20...

We report the first observation of seasonal modulations in rates cosmic ray multiple-muon events at two underground sites, MINOS Near Detector with an overburden 225 mwe, and Far site 2100 mwe. At deeper site, muons separated by more than 8 m exhibit a rate that peaks during summer, similar to single-muon events. In contrast unexpectedly, less 5--8 m, smaller, shallower Detector, modulation winter.

The CDF experiment uses a three-level trigger system to select events produced during pp macr collisions. As the luminosity of Tevatron accelerator falls by factor four over 24 hour period, selections are adjusted automatically in order make full use data processing bandwidth. made maximize high purity triggers and keep deadtime as low possible at any given thoughout entire course run. We describe algorithms used obtain these goals how changing conditions accounted for analysis data.
