• We report on a new analysis of neutrino oscillations in MINOS using the complete set of accelerator and atmospheric data. The analysis combines the v sub( mu )disappearance and v sub(e)appearance data using the three-flavor formalism. We measure | Delta m super(2) sub(32 )| = [2.28-2.46] x 10 super(-3) eV super(2) (68% C.L.) and sin super(2)[theta] sub(2 3) = 0.35-0.65 (90% C.L.) in the normal hierarchy, and | Delta m super(2) sub(32 )| = [2.32-2.53] x 10 super(-3) eV super(2) (68% C.L.) and sin super(2)[theta] sub(2 3) = 0.34-0.67 (90% C.L.) in the inverted hierarchy. The data also constrain delta sub(C)P the [theta] sub(23) octant degeneracy and the mass hierarchy; we disfavor 36% (11%) of this three-parameter space at 68% (90%) C.L.
