APS Neutrino Study: Reactor Working Group Goals of Working group: • Clear statement of physics potential of reactor experiments including non-1 topics • Understand physics reach, cost, and timescale for different scenarios • Small (CHOOZ-2): fixed 10-ton detectors at 1.1 km baseline • Medium: 50-ton detectors (Movable vs Fixed) • Large: 250-1000 ton (single or multiple far detectors) • For each scenario, describe defensible strategy for reaching the • claimed systematic uncertainty. (What will be needed to establish a signal?) • How do these scenarios complement and compete with other reactor • and accelerator experiments around the world? APS Neutrino Study
