Abstract

The long baseline neutrino experiments, T2K and NO[Formula: see text]A, have taken significant amount of data in each of the four channels: (a) [Formula: see text] disappearance, (b) [Formula: see text] disappearance, (c) [Formula: see text] appearance, and (d) [Formula: see text] appearance. There is a mild tension between the disappearance and the appearance data sets of T2K. A more serious tension exists between the [Formula: see text] appearance data of T2K and the [Formula: see text] appearance data of NO[Formula: see text]A. This tension is significant enough that T2K rules out the best-fit point of NO[Formula: see text]A at 95% confidence level, whereas, NO[Formula: see text]A rules out T2K best-fit point at 90% confidence level. We explain the reason why these tensions arise. We also do a combined fit of T2K and NO[Formula: see text]A data and comment on the results of this fit.
