We show that the dominant effect of the violation is a shift in the effective value of θ<sub>23</sub>. This is in contrast to the dominant effect of the charged-current interaction which shifts θ<sub>12</sub> and θ<sub>13</sub>. The shift in θ<sub>23</sub> will be difficult to observe if the value of sin<sup>2</sup>(2θ<sub>23</sub>) is too close to one. However, if the value of sin<sup>2</sup>(2θ<sub>23</sub>) is as small as 0.92, then a Fermilab →Hyper-Kamiokande experiment can potentially place a constraint on universality violation at the 1% level after 5 years of data taking.application/pdfenIn CopyrightMatter Effect on Neutrino Oscillations from the violation of Universality in Neutrino Neutral Current InteractionsArticle - RefereedTakeuchi, T [0000-0002-3594-5149]
