The CNGS neutrinos are also studied by the [[OPERA experiment]], therefore those experiments are also called [[CNGS1 experiment|CNGS1]] (OPERA) and CNGS2 (ICARUS).<ref name=icarus12>{{Cite journal|author=ICARUS Collaboration|title=Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the ICARUS detector at the CNGS beam|journal=Physics Letters B|volume=713|issue=1|pages=17–22|doi=10.1016/j.physletb.2012.05.033|arxiv=1203.3433|date=2012|bibcode = 2012PhLB..713...17I17A }}</ref>
 
The CNGS measurements also became important when the OPERA group announced in September and November 2011, that they have measured [[faster than light|superluminal]] neutrinos (see ''[[faster-than-light neutrino anomaly]]''). Shortly afterwards, the ICARUS collaboration published a paper in which they argued, that the energy distribution of the neutrinos is not compatible with superluminal particles. This conclusion was based on a theory of Cohen and [[Sheldon Lee Glashow]].<ref>{{Cite journal|author=ICARUS Collaboration|title=A search for the analogue to Cherenkov radiation by high energy neutrinos at superluminal speeds in ICARUS |journal=Physics Letters B|volume=711|issue=3–4|pages=270–275|doi=10.1016/j.physletb.2012.04.014|arxiv=1110.3763|date=2012|bibcode = 2012PhLB..711..270I }}</ref>
