14 Oct 2005 | Affiliation: | Fermilab), Sergio Palomares-Ruiz (Vanderbilt U.), Silvia Pascoli (CERN & Durham U., IPPP | Abstract: | We consider a Super-NOvA-like experimental configuration based on the use of two detectors in a long-baseline experiment as NOvA. We take the far detector as in the present NOvA proposal and add a second detector at a shorter baseline. The location of the second off-axis detector is chosen such that the ratio L/E is the same for both detectors, being L the baseline and E the neutrino energy. We consider liquid argon and water-Cherenkov techniques for the second off-axis detector and study, for different experimental setups, the detector mass required for the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy, for different values of theta13. We also study the capabilities of such an experimental setup for determining CP violation in the neutrino sector. Our results show that by adding a second off-axis detector a remarkable enhancement on the capabilities of the current NOvA experiment could be achieved. | Source: | arXiv, hep-ph/0510182 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
