The T2K Neutrino Oscillation Experiment and Possible Future Projects
نویسنده
چکیده
The Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) experiment is a next generation long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment utilising the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) high intensity proton synchrotron. After a brief introduction of the current understanding of neutrino mixing, the T2K experiment, its current status and the expected physics results are presented. Then, possibilities for future neutrino oscillation experiments utilising J-PARC are discussed.

The three neutrino model has 9 physical parameters, 3 neutrino masses, 3 mixing angles and 3 CP violating phases. Among them, neutrino oscillation experiments can probe 6 parameters: 2 mass squared differences, 3 mixing angles, and 1 CP phase. The experiments performed so far determined the magnitudes of the two mass squared differences, the sign of the smaller mass squared difference, the magn...

Results from the K2K experiment and status of the T2K experiment are reported. 1 Results from the K2K experiment The K2K experiment[1] is the first long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment with a distance of hundred kilometers and using an accelerator-based neutrino beam. It started in 1999 and ended in November, 2004. The main purpose of K2K is to confirm muon neutrino oscillation claimed...
متن کاملNeutrino Cross Section Measurements for Long-baseline Accelerator-based Neutrino Oscillation Experiments
Neutrino oscillations are clear evidence for physics beyond the standard model. The goal of next-generation neutrino oscillation experiments is to find a non-zero θ13, the last mixing matrix element for which we only know an upper limit. For this, next-generation long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments require an order of magnitude better sensitivities. In particular, accelerator-based e...
متن کاملLatest results from T2K and T2K Phase II
T2K is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment using a νμ beam produced at the J-PARC facility. Neutrinos are detected at a Near Detector complex (ND280) and at the Far Detector (Super-Kamiokande). The most recent oscillation results presented by T2K are described in these proceedings. With these data T2K has produced the first constraints on δCP, excluding CP conserving values at 2σ an...
متن کاملCP Violation and Neutrino Oscillations
We review the basic mechanisms of neutrino mass generation and the corresponding structure of the lepton mixing matrix. We summarize the status of three-neutrino oscillation parameters as determined from current observations, using state-of-the-art solar and atmospheric neutrino fluxes, as well as latest experimental data as of September 2007. We also comment on recent attempts to account for t...
