Using various statistical methods, many investigators have claimed on the basis of the polar angle «cosθ» distribution of electrons from neutrinos emitted from SN 1987A that the IMB data seem to have a nonisotropic distribution, whereas the Kamiokande data show an isotropic distribution. They assert that it is difficult to explain the distribution only by the capture process ν e + p → n + e + . However, they do not seem to have succeeded in testing spherical distributions using both the polar and azimuthal angles because they calculate using only the polar angle while keeping the azimuthal angle uniform a priori. Also, the azimuthal angle distribution of the IMB events has been affected by the lack of tracks due to the failure at the high-voltage supply to a part of the photomultiplier tubes at the time of the supernova explosion
