Future Neutrino Oscillation Facilities
نویسنده
چکیده
The European Commission FP7 Design Study called EUROnu is undertaking R&D on the most critical components of three possible candidates for a future, high intensity neutrino oscillation facility that could be built in Europe. These are a low energy neutrino Superbeam from CERN to the Fréjus tunnel in France, a Neutrino Factory and a Beta Beam based on 8 Li and 8 B ions. The study is following the recommendations of the CERN Council Strategy for Particle Physics and aims to deliver a performance and cost comparison between the facilities in 2012. The work is being done in close collaboration with international partners, in particular the International Design Study for a Neutrino Factory.

Future Neutrino Oscillation Facilities
An outline of the present and future long-baseline neutrino facilities with emphasis on the possibilities at CERN is presented. Accelerator-made neutrinos for long-baseline oscillation experiments open the exploration to a broad and rather interesting field of physics experiments, with the measurement of the neutrino mixing angle (θ13), the determination of the sign of neutrino mass hierarchy (...
متن کاملThe EUROnu Study for Future High Power Neutrino Oscillation Facilities
The EUROnu project was a 4 year FP7 design study to investigate and compare three possible options for future, high power neutrino oscillation facilities in Europe. These three facilities are a Neutrino Factory, a neutrino superbeam from CERN to the Frejus Laboratory and a socalled Beta Beam. The study was completed at the end of 2012 and has produced conceptual designs for the facilities and p...
متن کاملNon oscillation flavor physics at future neutrino oscillation facilities
New physics which can be probed at future long baseline experiments is discussed. These include the exotic interactions which modify the neutrino mixing at production, in propagation and at detection, and violation of unitarity which arises due to the effect of heavy particles.
متن کاملTesting Neutrino Properties at Long Baseline Experiments and Neutrino Factories
It is shown that explanations of atmospheric neutrino anomaly other than νμ − ντ oscillations (e.g. decay, decoherence and νμ − ντ − νKK mixing) can be tested at future facilities. Stringent tests of CPT invariance in neutrino oscillations can also be performed.
متن کاملThe EUROnu Project: A High Intensity Neutrino Oscillation Facility in Europe
EUROnu is a European Commission funded FP7 Design Study investigating three possible options for a future high intensity neutrino oscillation facility in Europe. These options are a CERN to Fréjus Super-Beam, a Neutrino Factory and a Beta Beam. The aims of the project are to undertake the crucial R&D on each of the accelerator facilities and determine their performance and relative cost, includ...
