We study the efficiency of DUNE, a next generation long baseline oscillation experiment to resolve two major unknowns in neutrino oscillation physics. These are, octant of $\theta_{23}$ (i.e. if $\theta_{23}$ is $< 45^\circ$ or $>45^\circ$)…
A very long baseline experiment, with $L/E$ of $1.6 \times 10^4$ m/MeV, has been proposed as the ideal means to measure $\theta_{13}$, including its sign, for neutrino energies less than 50 MeV. Higher energies require consideration of the…
