Description
In this talk, we investigate the effects of non-standard interactions (NSI) in the MINOS experiment based on a full three-flavor neutrino oscillation framework simulation. The simulation was performed using the GLoBES software. The results indicate that the allowed region in the sin2(2θ23)-Δm312 plane is extended due to NSI effects, that there is a degeneracy between the leptonic mixing angle θ13 and the NSI parameter εeτ, and that MINOS can put a lower upper bound on sin2(2θ13) than CHOOZ only for small values of |εeτ|
