Abstract

We assess the sensitivity to the lepton CP phase by accelerator and reactor experiments in the near future, characterizing it globally by means of the CP exclusion fraction measure. Such measure quantifies what fraction of the δCP\delta_{\rm CP} space can be excluded at given input values of θ23\theta_{23} and δCP\delta_{\rm CP}. For some region of the parameter space, we find that T2K and NOν\nuA combined can exclude about 30%40%30\%-40\% of the δCP\delta_{\rm CP} space at 3σ3\sigma with a 5 years running in each neutrino and antineutrino modes. A determination of the mass hierarchy would be possible for a modest portion of the parameter space at 3σ3\sigma.
