Phenomenology of future long-baseline neutrino experiments

چکیده

I review some basic ideas behind possible future long-baseline neutrino experiments to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy and uncover leptonic CP violation. With emphasis of “large θ13” hypothesis I try to illuminate the principles of the conventional method for resolving the mass hierarchy by using the earth matter effect, and for detecting CP violation as a vacuum effect. They include the VLBL on-axis approach and the two-detector method. Some unconventional ideas for reaching the same goal are also mentioned.

Long baseline neutrino oscillations: Theoretical aspects

We discuss the measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters at future long baseline experiments in terms of the motivation of the experiments, the quantities of interest from the theoretical point of view, the phenomenology of these experiments, and the experiment choice. We illustrate the oscillation physics potential of a neutrino factory, as a representative for the most challenging te...

Damping signatures in future neutrino oscillation experiments

We discuss the phenomenology of damping signatures in the neutrino oscillation probabilities, where either the oscillating terms or the probabilities can be damped. This approach is a possibility for tests of non-oscillation effects in future neutrino oscillation experiments, where we mainly focus on reactor and long-baseline experiments. We extensively motivate different damping signatures due...

Long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments

In the last decade, the study of flavor oscillations with neutrino long baseline experiments has been an extremely effective way to get information on the mass (up to an unknown scale) and the mixing between weak and mass neutrino eigenstates. In particular, accelerator driven experiments have determined precisely the so-called 2-3 sector and are beginning to tackle the 1-3 sector. Within a dec...

A Parametrization for the Neutrino Mixing Matrix

We propose a flexible and model independent parametrization of the neutrino mixing matrix, which takes advantage of the fact that there are up to three small quantities in neutrino mixing phenomenology: (i) the deviation from maximal mixing of solar neutrinos, (ii) the mixing matrix element Ue3 and (iii) the deviation from maximal mixing of atmospheric neutrinos. It is possible to quantify thos...
