Four species neutrino oscillations at ν-Factory: sensitivity and CP-violation
نویسنده
چکیده
The prospects of measuring the leptonic angles and CP-odd phases at a neutrino factory are discussed in the scenario of three active plus one sterile neutrino. We consider the νμ → νe LSND signal. Its associated large mass difference leads to observable neutrino oscillations at short (∼ 1 km) baseline experiments. Sensitivities to the leptonic angles down to 10 can be easily achieved with a 1 Ton detector. Longer baseline experiments (∼ 100 km) with a 1 Kton detector can provide very clean tests of CP-violation especially through tau lepton detection.

Update on four-family neutrino oscillations at ν-Factory
The prospects of measuring the leptonic angles and CP-odd phases at a neutrino factory are discussed in the scenario of three active plus one sterile neutrino, motivated by the νμ → νe LSND signal. Sensitivity to the MNS mixing matrix angles at O(10) is achieved with a 1 T detector at ∼ 1 km from the source, whereas leptonic CP-violation can be measured through tau detection with a 1 kT detecto...
متن کاملShort-Baseline Neutrino Oscillations at a Neutrino Factory
Within the framework of three-neutrino and four-neutrino scenarios that can describe the results of the LSND experiment, we consider the capabilities of short baseline neutrino oscillation experiments at a neutrino factory. We find that, when short baseline (L ∼ 100 km) neutrino factory measurements are used together with other accelerator-based oscillation results, the complete three-neutrino ...
متن کاملOn the measurement of leptonic CP violation
We show that the simultaneous determination of the leptonic CP-odd phase δ and the angle θ 13 from the subleading transitions ν e → ν µ and ¯ ν e → ¯ ν µ results generically, at fixed neutrino energy and baseline, in two degenerate solutions. In light of this, we refine a previous analysis of the sensitivity to leptonic CP violation at a neutrino factory, in the LMA-MSW scenario, by exploring t...
متن کاملSearch for CP Violation at a Neutrino Factory in a Four-Neutrino Model
The CP violation effects in long baseline neutrino oscillations are studied in the framework of a four-neutrino model (three active neutrinos and one sterile neutrino). It is assumed that neutrino masses are devided into two nearly degenerate pairs, as indicated by the oscillation data. Approximative analytic expressions are derived for the probability differences ∆Pαβ ≡ P (να → νβ)− P (να → νβ...
متن کاملSummary of Golden Measurements at a ν-Factory
The precision and discovery potential of a neutrino factory based on muon storage rings is summarized. For three-family neutrino oscillations, we analyze how to measure or severely constraint the angle θ13, CP violation, MSW effects and the sign of the atmospheric mass difference ∆m223. The appearance of “wrong-sign muons” at three reference baselines is considered: 732 km, 3500 km and 7332 km....
