Six events pass all selection criteria at the far detector. In a three- avor neutrino oscillation scenario with j m2 23j = 2:4 10􀀀3 eV2, sin2 2 23 = 1 and sin2 2 13 = 0, the expected number of such events is 1.5 0.3(syst.). Under this hypothesis, the probability to observe six or more candidate events is 7 10􀀀3, equivalent to 2.5 signi cance. At 90% C.L., the data are consistent with 0.03(0.04)< sin2 2 13 < 0.28(0.34) for CP = 0 and normal (inverted) hierarchy.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United StatesResearch Subject Categories::NATURAL SCIENCES::PhysicsT2K experimentIndication of Electron Neutrino Appearance from an Accelerator-produced Off-axis Muon Neutrino BeamArticle
