Measuring CP violation by low-energy medium-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

In this talk we discuss the possibility to measure CP violation in neutrino oscillation experiments using the neutrino beam with energy which is lower (E_\nu \gsim 100 MeV) than the one usually considered (typically > 1 GeV) in accelerator experiments. The advantage of using such lower energy neutrino beam is that despite the smaller detection cross sections, the effect of CP violation is larger and the optimal length of baseline can be rather short, 30-50 km, being free from matter effect contamination.
