3 THE CASE FOR A SUPER NEUTRINO BEAM Mary Bishai, BNL 3 p.3/36
4 Mary Bishai, BNL 4 p.4/36 Why a Very Long Baseline? Sensitivity to atmospheric ( m 2 32 ) AND solar ( m2 21 ) oscillation scales Verify oscillation behaviour by observing multiple nodes Resolution of E νµ < 1GeV/c 2 dominated by Fermi motion maximize L = O(1000) km Higher energies = larger crosssections Very long baseline = multiple node pattern is detectible for all m 2 32 range. More nodes = higher precision. Energy (GeV) Oscillation Nodes for m 2 = ev FNAL-SOUDAN π/2 3π/2 BNL-HOMESTAKE 5π/2 Fermi motion dominated Baseline (km)

6 Mary Bishai, BNL 6 p.6/36 VLB ν µ ν e Sensitivity Matter effects in two flavor oscillations: In neutrino oscillations with θ 13 0, matter effects change ν µ ν e oscillation probability. More matter = larger effects Marciano (hep-ph/ ): CP asymmetry in ν µ ν e, A, grows with L Flux at far detector goes as 1/L 2. FOM = A 2 N ν /(1 A 2 ) is constant P(ν µ ν e ) GeV neutrino, vacuum numu cp=90 numu cp=45 numu cp=0 anumu cp=45 anumu cp=90 SK best fit LMA-I sin 2 (2θ) 13 = FOM independent of baseline Brett Viren, bv@bnl.gov, 06/04/2004 Baseline (km)
7 Mary Bishai, BNL 7 p.7/36 Sensitivity to δ cp & sign( m 32 ) Matter effects enhance (suppress) ν µ ν e oscillation probability for E ν > 3 GeV/c 2 if m 3 > m 2 > m 1 (m 2 > m 1 > m 3 ) For 1 < E ν < 3 GeV/c 2 appearance spectrum is sensitive to δ cp Probability ν µ ν e Oscillation BNL-HS 2540 km, matter effects sin 2 2θ (12,23,13) = (0.86, 1.0, 0.04) m (21,31) 2 = (7.3e-5, 2.5e-3) ev 2 Neutrino Running m 32 2 > 0, δ CP = 45 o m 32 2 > 0, δ CP = 0 o m 32 2 < 0, δ CP = 0 o E ν (GeV) Enhancement at < 2 GeV is that expected from solar parameters.

9 THE CASE FOR BROOKHAVEN AS THE SUPER BEAM FACILITY Mary Bishai, BNL 9 p.9/36
10 Mary Bishai, BNL 10 p.10/36 BNL baselines The US is 4500 km coast-to-coast. Brookhaven National Lab is located on the eastern coast ideal for O(2000) km baselines. BNL-Homestake mine = 2540 km BNL-Henderson mine = 2700 km
11 Mary Bishai, BNL 11 p.11/36 The AGS as a proton source The Alternating Gradient Synchrotron at BNL accelerates 1.5 GeV/c protons from the Booster up to 33 GeV/c. Typical intensity achieved for slow extracted beam is protons at a rep rate of 0.5 Hz the most intense proton beam in the world
12 Mary Bishai, BNL 12 p.12/36 BNL ν beam spectrum Detailed simulation of a 28 GeV proton beam on a graphite target with a wideband focusing horn. Beam can be run in either neutrino or anti-neutrino mode. BNL Wide Band. Proton Energy = 28 GeV nu/gev/m 2 /POT at 1 km Distance = 1 km ν µ A combination of neutrino and anti-neutrino running will constrain sin 2 θ ν e ν e /ν µ = E ν (GeV) AGS 28 GeV protons will produce a spectrum of E ν = 1 to 10 GeV/c 2 Well matched to baseline 2000 km
13 Mary Bishai, BNL 13 p.13/36 BNL Conceptual Design Report BNL IR available at ad/
14 Mary Bishai, BNL 14 p.14/36 AGS MW Beam Requirements Very long baseline = low ν flux at the far detector need 1-2 MW beam and megaton detectors present AGS 1MW 2 MW Total power (MW) Beam Energy (GeV) Rep. rate Avg. current (µa) Avg. circulating current (A) No. of bunches at extraction Protons per fill AGS ONLY: upgrade cost = FY 04 $ 70.6 M To increase rep rate from replace booster.
15 Mary Bishai, BNL 15 p.15/36 Super Conducting Linac Linac design is driven by lenght constrain = 120m. We need a GeV linac to replace booster. A 1 GeV proton SCL for the Spallation Neutron Source has already been built High Intensity Source plus RFQ 200 MeV Drift Tube Linac 200 MeV 400 MeV Superconducting Linacs 800 MeV SCL BOOSTER 1.2 GeV To Target Station SNS AGS 1.2 GeV 28 GeV 0.4 s cycle time (2.5 Hz) 0.2 s 0.2 s To RHIC RF frequency(mhz) 805 & Accelerating gradient (MeV/m) Cells/cavity 8 6 Inner cavity space (cm) 32 & Warm to cold transition (cm) 30 75
16 Mary Bishai, BNL 16 p.16/36 SCL vs SNS layout Cost estimate of this SCL = FY 04 $ 122M
17 Mary Bishai, BNL 17 p.17/36 Alternative SCL design SCL design requires development of new 1610 MHz cavities. BNL is costing an alternative design based on upgrading the existing 200 MeV Linac to 400 MeV using the FERMILAB upgrade technology completed in 1993: Replace 4/9 drift-tube linac (DTL) tanks with 805 MHz coupled-cavity linac (CCL) modules. CCL modules are smaller than DTL = will fit. The SCL can then accelerate up to 1.5 GeV using only SNS 805 MHz cavities.
18 Mary Bishai, BNL 18 p.18/36 Target and horn design Temperature rise per pulse in CC target is T = 270.

34 Mary Bishai, BNL 34 p.34/36 Conclusions: A very long baseline experiment can address both the solar and atmospheric oscillation scales. Very precise measurements of m 2 32 and sin2 θ 23 can be acheived at either 1290 or 2540 km baseline. Very good bounds on θ 13 from either baseline Longer baseline = more sensitivity to ν e appearance if θ 13 too small. If sin 2 2θ 13 not too small then δ cp can be determined from ν running only. With the longer baseline = larger mass effects = better resolution of mass heirarchy and easier extraction of δ cp. Constraints on 3-generation model and further improvements in δ cp measurement can then be achieved with ν running.
