Lack of any information on the CP violating phase $\dcp$ weakens our ability to determine neutrino mass hierarchy. Magic baseline of 7500 km was proposed to overcome this problem. However, to obtain large enough fluxes, at this very long…

We show that for a neutrino factory baseline of $L \sim 7300 km - 7 600 km$ a ``clean'' measurement of $\sin^2 2 \theta_{13}$ becomes possible, which is almost unaffected by parameter degeneracies. We call this baseline "magic" baseline,…
