Discovering $CP$ violation in neutrino oscillation experiment using neutrino beam from electron capture
Abstract
Considering the recently obtained value of from Daya Bay and other reactor experiments we have studied the prospects of considering mono-energetic neutrino beam in studying violation in the leptonic sector. Using a neutrino beam from electron capture process for nuclei Sn and Yb and considering two baselines - 130 Km and 250 Km with Water Cherenkov detector, we have shown the discovery reach of violation in neutrino oscillation experiment. Particularly for Sn nuclei violation could be found for about 80% of the possible values for a baseline of 130 km with boost factor . This result is obtained with conservative choice of neutrino energy resolution using the possible vertex resolution at the detector and taking into account beam spreading. The nuclei Yb is although more suitable technically for the production of mono-energetic beam, but is found to be not so suitable for good discovery reach of violation.
