Abstract
Muon-neutrino and -antineutrino scattering off electrons was detected in a 19-ton Al spark chamber, exposed to the wide-band () beam from the CERN proton synchrotron. The background was determined experimentally. 11 (10) genuine () scattering events were found. The respective cross sections are and . The analysis excludes a pure interaction, and makes a pure or theory improbable. The data agree well with the Salam-Weinberg model and .
