Search for sterile neutrino mixing in the νμ → ντ appearance channel with the OPERA detector

The OPERA experiment has observed muon neutrino to tau neutrino oscillations in the atmospheric sector in appearance mode. Five ντ candidate events have been detected, a number consistent with the expectation from the “standard” 3ν framework. Based on this result new limits on the mixing parameters...
