Appearance and disappearance signals at a beta-Beam and a Super-Beam facility
Abstract
In this letter we present the study of the eightfold degeneracy in the measurement including both appearance and disappearance channels. We analyse, for definiteness, the case of a standard low- -Beam and a 4 MWatt SPL Super-Beam facility, both aiming at a UNO-like Mton water Cerenkov detector located at the Frejus laboratory, km. In the -Beam case, the \nue disappearance channel does not improve the measurement when a realistic (i.e. 2%) systematic error is included. In the Super-Beam case, the \numu disappearance channel could, instead, be quite useful in reducing the impact of the eightfold degeneracy in the measurement, especially once the error on the atmospheric mass difference is fully taken into account in the fit.
