Resumo

The long baseline neutrino experiments, T2K and NO nu A, have taken significant amount of data in each of the four channels: (a) nu(mu), disappearance, (b) (nu) over bar (mu), disappearance, (c) nu(e) appearance, and (d)( nu) over bar (e) appearance. There is a mild tension between the disappearance and the appearance data sets of T2K. A more serious tension exists between the nu(e) appearance data of T2K and the nu(e)/(nu) over bar (e) appearance data of NO nu A. This tension is significant enough that T2K rules out the best-fit point of NO nu A at 95% confidence level, whereas, NO nu 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 nu A data and comment on the results of this fit. (AU)
