functionalObjects.h allows the C++ programmer performing common mathematical calculations to use a more symbolic syntax rather than an algorithmic syntax. This is not as ambitious as a symbolic manipulation program such as Mathematica; it is more like having the ability to drop a very simple Mathematica statement into a C++ program.
Updated results are presented of low-energy ($\bar{E_ν} \sim 5 GeV$) neutrino interactions observed by the MACRO detector. Two analyses (of different topologies) are presented; individually, and especially in their ratio, they are inconsistent with no oscillations and consistent with maximal mixing at $Δm^2$ of a few times $10^{-3}$.
A preliminary analysis is presented of low-energy ($\bar{E_ν} \sim 4 GeV$) neutrino interactions observed by the MACRO detector. These include neutrino interactions in the detector, as well as upgoing neutrino-induced muons that stop in the detector. At these energies, essentially all observed interactions can be attributed to atmospheric neutrinos. A large deficit is observed compared to a no-oscillations Monte Carlo prediction, although the systematic errors are large. However, the observation agrees well with neutrino oscillations with parameters suggested by the MACRO upward throughgoing muon analysis as well as other experiments (maximal mixing with $Δm^2$ of a few times $10^{-3}$).
