One of the outstanding issues in neutrino physics is the experimental determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy: Is the order of the neutrino masses ``normal'' - m_1^2<m_2^2<m_3^2 - or is it inverted - m_3^2<m_1^2<m_2^2, with m_2^2-m_1^2…
The neutrino mass hierarchy can be determined, in principle, by measuring a phase in the disappearance oscillation probability in vacuum, without relying on the matter effect, using a single channel. This phase is not the same for the…
