First neutrino oscillation measurement with KM3NeT/ORCA
Résumé
The KM3NeT/ORCA detector is a next-generation neutrino telescope at
the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. Optimized for the detection of
atmospheric neutrinos with energies between 1 GeV and 100 GeV,
KM3NeT/ORCA will offer competitive sensitivity for measuring the
neutrino mass ordering, as well as $\theta_{23}$ and $\Delta
m^2_{23}$.
Currently under construction, 6 of the 115 planed Detection Units are
already installed and are steadily taking data since January
2021. This contribution will present the results from the first
neutrino oscillation analysis with 1 year of data. These early
results already out-perform ANTARES measurements, and approach the
sensitivity of current world-leading atmospheric neutrino
experiments. The latest estimates of the sensitivity of the complete
KM3NeT/ORCA detector are also discussed.
