Abstract
We present the latest results on the appearance of tau neutrinos from neutrino oscillations in the flux of atmospheric neutrinos recorded at Super-Kamiokande. The dataset is for a live-time of 6511.3 days recorded from 1996 to 2020, and accounts for all of the pure-water runs at Super-Kamiokande. The exposure of the detector is 484.2 kT-years. 428±92 oscillated tau neutrino events have been observed. The measured tau neutrino normalisation is 1.36±0.29. We exclude the hypothesis of no tau neutrino appearance with a significance of 4.8σ.
