Description
The MINOS experiment has made the best measurement of the atmospheric
neutrino mass splitting to date by studying the disappearance of muon
neutrinos over its 735 km baseline. Since October 2009 MINOS has been
running with a dedicated muon antineutrino beam and has obtained data
corresponding to 1.5\times10^{20} protons on target in this
configuration. Details of the analysis of these data are presented,
allowing the first precision measurements of the atmospheric-regime
antineutrino oscillation parameters. Any difference between the
neutrino and antineutrino values could indicate CPT violation or other
new physics.
