  2. Deriving the optimal base line for the ESS SuperBeam for CP violation discovery Full GLoBES simulations with 15% ν cross-section and syst. errors by Enrique Fernandez - The fraction of the full δCP range 0o-360o within which CP violation can be discovered as function of the baseline length in km for proton linac energies 2, 2.5 and GeV. - The lower (upper) curves are for CP violation discovery at 5σ (3σ ) significance.

  3. The signifiance in terms of number of standard deviations with which CP violation could be discovered for δCP-values from -180 to +180 degrees for 2.0 GeV protons in 10 years 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  6. Mass hierarchy determination for different base lines with ESS νSB during 10 years The significance in mass hierarchy determination as function of δCPfor different base line lengths (Enrique Fernandez) Measurements with atmospheric neutrinos will further improve this performance 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  7. To measure low energy neutrinos a large water Cherenkov detector is required (low neutrino cross section) and sufficient (few inelastic events) • A Megaton water Cherenkov detector to study; • Neutrinos from accelerators (Super Beam) • but also • Supernovae neutrinos (burst + "relics"), • Solar Neutrinos, • Atmospheric neutrinos, • Geoneutrinos • Proton decay up to ~1035 years life time. • All these other measurements require the detector to be shielded by ~1000 m rock from cosmic ray muons 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University 7

  8. A distinct feature of ESSnuSB is its low beam energy. One implications of this is that the second oscillation maximum will be located at not too large a distance from the source. Several mines located at this distance from ESS/Lund are available (not so for LBNE and HyperK) 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  9. Gruvsjöschaktet Nytt schakt Garpenberg Mine Distance from ESS Lund 540 km Depth 1232 m Truck access tunnels Two ore hoist shafts SDn / 2012 A new ore hoist schaft is planned to be ready i 1 year, leaving the two existing shafts free for other uses Granite drill cores 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  10. Zinkgruvan mine Distance from ESS Lund 360 km Depth 1200 m Access tunnel 15 km Ore hoist shaft 7m/s 20 tons Personnel hoist shaft New ore volume 2 km long tunnel planned for new ore volume – 3 Memphys cavities could be built adjacent to this tunnel. Extension of access tunnel and second hoist shaft needed. 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University 10

  11. Currently we are investigating the possibilities offered by the North shaft and decline of the Garpenberg mineIn 2012 300 000 tons (=110 000 m3) of ore was transported with trucks on the decline up to the shaft hoist at 830 m depth and hoisted up to the ground level so 770 000 m3 can be hoised in 7 years.The hoist and shaft will no longer be used for mining after 2014 and can therefore be use for the detector cavern excavation.Bore holes have been made out to the granite zone and recent rock strength measurements of 18 granite bore core samples collected have yielded a mean value of the uniaxial compressive strength of 206 MPa (cf. 232 Mpa at Pyhäsalmi mine).The rock stress magnitude at 880 m depth has been measured and is about 40 MPa (cf. 52 MPa at Pyhäsalmi mine at 900 m). 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  12. In Pyhäslami there is mafic or intermediate volcanics, in Garpenberg early granites and in Kamiokande amphibolite and gneiss. They all represent volcanic, non-sedimental rock which is the most competent rock for making large excavations. The proposed location at Gapenebrg Norra is good regarding the geological aspects. The area is dominated of forests on surface. There are only 6 different owners of the land including Boliden AB, Hedemora Kommun and Sveaskog owned by the Swedish state. There are a few houses located about 1 km from the proposed area. Granite drill cores 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  13. For construction of the neutrino detector there must be an approval from the environmental court, Miljödomstolen, about the outlet of water, management of rock from the excavation, noise level and other environmental aspects. The most critical factor is the disposal of the large amounts of waste rock. However, as the rock outside the mine syncline does not contain sulfur and other contaminating elements like the rock inside does, it should be possible to sell it as construction material. 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  14. The saving in cost by using Bolidens mining infrastructure is of the order of 100 MEUR and the gain in construction time ca 5 years. There is an urgent need for negotiations with Boliden and establish a “Letter of Intent” type agreement to keep the Garbenberg Norra infrastructure in operational order until can be taken over by ESSnuSB.LIST OF USEFUL EQUIPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE IN GARPENBERG NORRA- Complete hoist installation down to 850 m including spare parts for the hoisting of rock - Complete coarse crusher on level 800 with feeders and conveyer belts - Complete skip-loading station on level 805- Headframe with pockets for hoisted rock.- Decline tunnel down to 1200 m used for transport by trucks- Electrical installations for power supply of the equipment- Pumping and ventilation installations 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  15. Infrastructure needed for the water Cherenkov neutrino detector The detector cavern site will be accessed from the bottom of the hoist shaft through a ca 1km long horizontal tunnel and from there be excavated downwards. The walls of the cavern must be secured against spalling by inserting a large amount of bolts of several meters length in the walls and by covering the walls with a meter-thick lining of concrete (“shotcrete”). There are different ways of containing the water, the simples being to cover the concrete lining with a water-tight plastic membrane.

  16. The water in the cavern which needs to be continuously filtered and purified in an industrial size purification plant and temperature monitored. There must be ventilation, access tunnels and control roomsThe order 100 000 photo-detectors need to be mounted on large frames that maintained the detectors in position with good precision. High voltage and signal cables must be laid out and connected. There must be water transparency and photo-detector efficiency monitors of several different kinds Super-Kamiokande 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  32. ConclusionsThe far detector needs to be a Megaton water Cherenkov detector to attain a sufficiently large detector volumeThe far detector needs to be located about 1000 m underground in order to enable measurements of proton life-time and supernova neutrinos There are suitable mining infrastructures in stable rock available around the location of the second oscillation maximum –the Garpenberg mine is our prime candidate 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University

  33. It is important to soon write a Letter of Intent with the owner Boliden of the Garpenberg mine in order to be able to use for the detector caver construction the Garpenberg Norra mining infrastructure that Boliden will soon abandonThe detector cavern and its infrastructure represent a dominant cost in the ESSnuSB budget Extensive reports on three different future Megaton water Cherenkov detector projects have been written over the last few years which we should study and make maximum use of for ESSnuSBThere is an currently an intense and promising development of new photon detectors which should be we should explore and exploit 2nd ESSnuSB Meeting in Lund Tord Ekelöf Uppsala University
