Abstract: The fully contained events detected in the NUSEX nucleon stability experiment have been analysed to search for possible anomalies in the fluxes of atmospheric neutrinos. The measured flux of muon neutrinos is in very good agreement with predictions and no anomaly has been found in the ratio between the rate of electron and muon neutrino events.
