Opera Highlights

Abstract

The OPERA experiment is a long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment aimed at observing the $\nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \nu_{\tau}$ neutrino oscillation in the CERN neutrino to Gran Sasso beamline in the appearance mode by detecting the $\tau$ - decay. Here I will summarize the results from the run years 2008-10 with an update on observed rare decay topologies and the results of the neutrino velocity measurements.Comment: Proceedings of the 2012 Volcano Workshop: Frontier Objects in Astrophysics and Particle Physic
