Abstract

Using the result of the three flavor analysis of the old Kamiokande data, the recent Superkamiokande data of atmospheric neutrinos and the CHOOZ reactor data, it is shown that the third mixing angle θ13\theta_{13} is small. It is proposed to determine the small value of θ13\theta_{13} and the CP violating phase δ\delta in very long baseline experiments by measuring the appearance probability P(νμνe)P(\nu_\mu\to\nu_e) and the T violating effect P(νeνμ)P(νμνe)P(\nu_e\to\nu_\mu)-P(\nu_\mu\to\nu_e) which are enhanced by the matter effect of the Earth.
