  • For an assumed E?2spectrum, a 90% classical confidence level upper limit has been placed at a level E2? 1.
  • The error bars on the data are 90% unified confidence intervals [16] for the fixed but unknown value of the mean rate (signal plus background) for each bin.
  • More specifically, a generalized likelihood ratio test of the shape of the atmospheric neutrino hypothesis as the parent distribution of the data yields a chance probability of 20%, which is too large to reject the shape of the atmospheric neutrino hypothesis.
  • 2.
  • Also shown is the 90% confidence level Feldman-Cousins average upper limit which is a function of the expected background.
  • The multiplicity cut corresponds to a ...
