Optimization for Mass Hierarchy

Abstract

The Delta m^2_13 oscillation frequency for reactor neutrinos differs by 6.4% between normal and inverted mass hierarchy. This frequency difference accumulates to a phase difference over distance and time. The optimal distance is when the maximum phase difference between hierarchies occurs near the peak in the observable reactor neutrino spectrum. Added citations to some related recent work.
