A possibility to measure $\sin^22\theta_{13}$ using reactor neutrinos is examined in detail. It is shown that the sensitivity $\sin^22\theta_{13}>0.02$ can be reached with 20 ton-year data by placing identical CHOOZ-like detectors at near…

We study the optimal setup for observation of the CP asymmetry in neutrino factory experiments --- the baseline length, the muon energy and the analysis method. First, we point out that the statistical quantity which has been used in…

In this work we show that the physics reach of a long-baseline (LBL) neutrino oscillation experiment based on a superbeam and a megaton water Cherenkov detector can be significantly increased if the LBL data are combined with data from…

The ideal neutrino detector at the neutrino factory should have a mass in the range of 10 kton, provide particle identification to tag the flavor of the incoming neutrino, lepton charge measurement to select the incoming neutrino helicity,…

We propose to measure the CP phase $\delta_{\rm CP}$, the magnitude of the neutrino mixing matrix element $|U_{e3}|$ and the sign of the atmopheric scale mass--squared difference $\Delta{\rm m}^2_{31}$ with a superbeam by the joint analysis…

Searches for mass-3 component in the electron neutrino flavor state $\sin{\theta}_{13}$ and for sterile neutrinos can be carried out in the same small mixing angle antineutrino oscillation experiment at a reactor. As an example we consider…

We discuss the precision determination of the leptonic Dirac CP phase $\delta_{CP}$ in neutrino oscillation experiments, where we apply the concept of ``CP coverage''. We demonstrate that this approach carries more information than a…

We discuss the physics potential of intermediate $L \sim 20 \div 30$ km baseline experiments at reactor facilities, assuming that the solar neutrino oscillation parameters $\Delta m^2_{\odot}$ and $\theta_{\odot}$ lie in the high-LMA…

We discuss ways to explore non-standard interactions (NSI) which neutrinos may possess by expressing them as effective four Fermi operators with coefficient of the order of (M_{W} / M_{NP})^2 ~0.01 (0.0001) for energy scales of new physics…

Elegant experiments are being carried out, or are in preparation, to improve the precision with which the solar and atmospheric neutrino-oscillation parameters are known, and to attempt to make a first measurement of the small mixing angle…

Determination of the value of the leptonic CP-violating phase deltaand the neutrino mass hierarchy sgn(dm2_31) through long baselineneutrino oscillation experiments is systematically analyzed. We notethat the two oscillation spectra are…

We briefly discuss the physics motivation for a neutrino factory with varying baseline distances of about 1000 to 9000 km. We describe the amount of non planarity of the storage ring required to service three or four detectors at once. A…

We explore the physics reach of several possible configurations for a Super-Beam experiment in Europe, focusing on the possibilities of discovering $\theta_{13}$, CP violation in the leptonic sector and the ordering of neutrino mass…

Using $\Delta\chi^2$ which is defined by the difference of the number of events with the CP phase $\delta$ and the hypothetical one with $\delta=0$, we discuss correlations of errors of the CP phase and other oscillation parameters as well…

We consider the impact of non-standard interactions of neutrinos (NSI) on the determination of neutrino mixing parameters at a neutrino factory using $\pnu{e}\to\pnu{\mu}$ ``golden channels'' for the measurement of $\theta_{13}$. We show…

In 2011 and 2012, three reactor neutrino experiments, Double Chooz, Daya Bay and RENO showed positive signals of reactor neutrino disappearance and measured a mixing parameter sin^2(2th13) at average baselines 1.05, 1.65 and 1.44km,…

We study the phenomenological implications of the presence of two zeros in a magic neutrino mass matrix. We find that only two such patterns of the neutrino mass matrix are experimentally acceptable. We express all the neutrino observables…

The smallness of the 1-3 lepton mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ and of the neutrino mass-squared-difference ratio $\Delta m^2_{12}/\Delta m^2_{23}$ can be understood as the departure from a common limit where they both vanish. We discuss in…

We consider the medium- and long-baseline oscillation physics capabilities of intense muon-neutrino and muon-antineutrino beams produced using future upgraded megawatt-scale high-energy proton beams. In particular we consider the potential…

We study the connection between absolute neutrino mass and neutrino mixing parameters within $SO(10)$-inspired leptogenesis. We show that current favoured values of the unknown neutrino mixing parameters point toward values of the absolute…
