SUMMARY:First Results from the T2K Experiment - Matthew Malek (Imperial Co

DESCRIPTION:The Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) experiment is the world's first off
 -axis long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment\, based in Japan.  The
  accelerator at the new J-PARC facility produces a beam of muon neutrinos\
 , which travel 295 km before reaching the Super-Kamiokande detector.  The 
 two primary goals of the experiment are precision measurements of the nu_m
 u disappearance parameters (theta_23 and the associated mass squared diffe
 rence) and the first measurement of theta_13\, the last of the standard ne
 utrino mixing angles to be observed.  The off-axis design makes T2K partic
 ularly well suited to both tasks.  This talk will present results on both 
 topics from the first year of T2K data.
