Muenchen), Ken Long (Imperial College London) Hitoshi Murayama (LBL), Lee Roberts (U. Boston), Osamu Yasuda (Tokyo Metropolitan U.)

  3. 1. MISSION DEFINED Three subgroupsin the Physics working group • Theoretical • Phenomenological • Experimental ISS Plenary#1

  4. PHYSICS MOTIVATIONTwo directions beyond SM, toward Unification • EW symmetry breaking, ★ HIGGS, GUT, SUSY, EDLHC, ILC Clear theoretical guide exists:Top down approach • Flavor Problem ★ Origin of generations, Mass Hierarchy, Flavor Symmetry No clear theory exists. Only experimental observations: Bottom up approach Neutrino mass: Only “beyond SM evidence”! Cold Dark Matter and Dark Energy exist. Leptonic CP violation: The origin of the matter ?  Precision measurement of lepton mixing matrix and mass hierarchy  “Neutrino Factory” and other related facilities ISS Plenary#1

  5. The neutrino mixing matrix: 3 angles and a phased n3 Dm223= 2 10-3eV2 n2 n1 Dm212= 8 10-5 eV2 Normal Hierarchy or n2 n1 Dm212= 8 10-5 eV2 Dm223= 2 10-3eV2 n3 Inverted Hierarchy q23(atmospheric) = 450 , q12(solar) = 320 , q13(Chooz) < 130 Unknown or poorly known 13,phase ,sign of Dm213 ISS Plenary#1

  6. MuEGamma Goal 10-14 Muon Physics sensitive probe for SUSY Similar plots for  e conversion with Re- ranging between (10-14 - 10-17) PRISM sensitive down to 10-18 ISS Plenary#1 Hisano et al., PL B391 (1997) 341

  7. Neutrino factory is comparable with LHC and ILC “In its scale”. Is the physics case equally strong? ISS Plenary#1

  8. Mission of the theoretical subgroup Issue a message to global community • Win Other Scientists’ Support • It is not enough to win arguments… • one must win partners. • The two are not the same. • Robin Staffin, DOE, 2005 ILC Workshop at Snowmass • Describe the impact of the neutrino and other related researches • towards the understanding of the matter unification, the synergy of particle physics, astro-physics and cosmology. • Draw a roadmap, paint a colorful picture! ISS Plenary#1

  10. Mission of the phenomenogical and experimental subgroups • Critical review of physics performance of future options : • Superbeam (SB) • Beta beam (BB) • Neutrino Factory (NF) • Define strengths and weaknesses of each facility • Perform critical comparison • Step towards a consensus: • Identify the need for complementary measurements • Make a scenario w/wo staging approach to achieve scientific goals ISS Plenary#1

  11. For Experimental subgroup • Need to define: • Assumptions on accelerator performance • Assumptions on detector performance • Definition of baseline tools used for analyses: • e.g. Nuance/Globes. • Neutrino cross sections: status and what will be assumed. ISS Plenary#1

  12. Goals of the plenary meeting #1Establish list of parameters and things to do ISS Plenary#1

  23. Neutrino Factory • Provides clean intense ne nm channel (Golden) and ne  nt channel (Silver) • Provides disappearance channels nm  nm and ne  ne • NF (golden+silver)+SB solves degeneracies down to sin22q13=10-4 • Still considered as the ultimate neutrino oscillation facility • The question is cost consideration (1500M$+400M$*E/20 in Study II) ISS Plenary#1

  24.

  25. Long Future / “Next 30 years” Ability to observe non-zero q13 versus time Fermilab Proton driver study report’ http://protondriver.fnal.gov/ ISS Plenary#1

  26. NF always outperforms SB except for very large values of sin22q13 >0.01 (large uncertainties from matter effect) ISS Plenary#1 P.Huber et al., hep-ph/0412199

  27. Indicator for risk minimization of CP precision measurement T2HK is better Sin22q13=10-1 Synergy between T2HK and NF Sin22q13=10-3 NF outperforms Sin22q13=10-4 ISS Plenary#1 CP coverage is a range of fitted values of dCP P.Huber et al., hep-ph/0412199

  28. Each experiment to measure at fixed suffers from correlation and degeneracy problem SYSTEMATIC CORRELATION DEGENERACY 3. DEGENERACY PROBLEM T2K ISS Plenary#1 P.Huber et al. hep-ph/0403068

  29. P(nenm)=Asin22q13+sin2q13(Bcos d+Csin d)+D P(nenm)=Asin22q13+sin2q13(Bcos d -Csin d)+D Measurement of x=P(nenm) and y=P(nenm) at fixed En/L gives an elipse in x-y plane. _ _ _ _ 8-fold degeneracy q13 q’13 gives a different ellipse.2-foldq13-d degeneracy • q13- dambiguity. • Mass hierarchy two-fold degeneracy:|Dm231|=|-Dm231| • q23degeneracy:sin22q23= sin22(p/2-q)23 ISS Plenary#1

  30. How to solve correlation and degeneracy? Use combination of different En, L or Golden+Silver channel Many scenarios are proposed ISS Plenary#1

  31. Example 1 Measure at 2En’s to solve correlation Super-NOvA • SB +2nd detector at the 2nd oscillation maximum • 50 kton detector at 710 km. • 30km off axis (second max.) • 6 years (3 n + 3 anti n) Determines mass hierarchy for all values ofddown to sin2 2q13 =0.02 ISS Plenary#1
