Exploration prospects of a long baseline Beta Beam neutrino experiment with an iron calorimeter detector

چکیده
A high intensity source of a single neutrino flavour with known spectrum is most desirable for precision measurements, the consensus direction for the future. The beta beam is an especially suitable option for this. We discuss the prospects of a very long baseline beta beam experiment with a magnetized iron calorimeter detector. We observe that this experiment is well suited to determine the sign of m23 −m 2 2 and will be capable of probing θ13 down to about 1.

Can We Learn Something More on Oscillations from Atmospheric Neutrinos?
We show that for long-baseline experiments using a Mt water Čerenkov detector atmospheric neutrino data provide a powerful method to resolve parameter degeneracies. In particular, the combination of long-baseline and atmospheric data increases significantly the sensitivity to the neutrino mass hierarchy and the octant of θ23. Furthermore, we discuss the possibility to use μlike atmospheric neut...

This report summarises the conclusions from the detector group of the International Scoping Study of a future Neutrino Factory and Super-Beam neutrino facility. The baseline detector options for each possible neutrino beam are defined as follows: 1. A very massive (Megaton) water Cherenkov detector is the baseline option for a sub-GeV Beta Beam and Super Beam facility. 2. There are a number of ...
متن کاملCERN-INO magical Beta-beam experiment: A high precision probe for neutrino parameters
This talk is an attempt to underscore in detail the physics reach of an experimental set-up where neutrinos produced in a beta-beam facility at CERN would be observed in the proposed large magnetized iron calorimeter detector (ICAL) at the India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO). The “magical” CERN-INO beta-beam set-up offers an excellent avenue to use the “Golden” channel (νe → νμ ) oscillation...
متن کاملThe MINOS Detectors
The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) experiment’s primary goal is the precision measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters in the atmospheric neutrino sector. This long-baseline experiment uses Fermilab’s NuMI beam, measured with a Near Detector at Fermilab, and again 735 km later using a Far Detector in the Soudan Mine Underground Lab in northern Minnesota. The detecto...
متن کاملThe OPERA Experiment
OPERA(Oscillation Project with EmulsiontRacking Apparatus) is a new detector concept, iron(lead)emulsion for a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. This experiment would perform an appearance search for υμ−υτ oscillation in the parameter region indicated by the atmospheric neutrino anomaly. OPERA can run at the Gran Sasso Laboratory in the proposed NGS (Neutrino to Gran Sasso) Beam fr...
