1 The other oscillations: Atmospheric neutrinos Higher energy phenomenon Measurements dominated by SuperK SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 55
2 SuperKamiokande: the largest artificial water Cerenkov detector ever built (50 kton) SK > cm PMTs 40% photocathode 22.5kton fiducial mass PMTs recovered 19% photocathode K2K beam Original PMT coverage T2K beam SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 56

6 The oscillatory pattern is now also visible with atmospheric neutrinos And flavor oscillation is favored over other models for disappearance SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 60 E.Kearns, Nu2004
7 Parameter regions fit by different channels nicely overlap A 3 flavor analysis favors ν µ -ν τ oscillation as responsible for the atmospheric neutrino anomaly SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 61 E.Kearns, Nu2004
8 Again, the quest is open to observe the oscillation phenomenon with artificial neutrinos 12 GeV KEK protons Mini-K (1kton water + other detectors) near detector (100m) ν µ every 2.2s Super-K at 250km 10 6 ν µ every 2.2s (detect ~1event/2days) p.o.t. collected in ~3.5 yrs SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 62
9 Although rate is low background greatly reduced by beam spill timing (0.83 ms delay, synchronized offline using GPS) In the 3.5 yrs of data the atm nu background in the KEK beam spill window is 10-2 events T diff (µs) T.Nakaya, SSI 2004 Nu2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 63
10 Expected no oscillation rate: K2K establishes: no oscill, floating normalization ν µ disappearance at 2.9σ (standard physics has 0.33% CL) E ν spectral distortion at 2.5σ (standard physics has 1.1% CL) Combined we have a 3.9σ effect (standard physics has 0.011% CL) T.Nakaya, SSI 2004 Nu2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 64
11 approximate 90% CL from global SK fit to atmospheric neutrinos Minos should soon substantially improve the accuracy of this measurement T.Nakaya, SSI 2004 Nu2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 65
12 What we have discovered: There is mixing involving ν e with best fit at m 2 = ev 2 and θ=32 (solar/kamland) There is also mixing involving ν µ with best fit at m 2 = ev 2 and θ=45 (atmospheric/k2k) If there are only 3 neutrino families, since the two mass differences are of different order of magnitude, we expect to find a third m 2 similar to the larger of the two above SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 66
13 For reactor energies a m 2 ~ 10-3 ev requires a baseline of ~1 km Statistical errors only SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 67
14 The neutrino oscillation experiment at the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (AZ) ~750 m U. of Alabama, ASU, Caltech, Stanford Collaboration Plant of the Arizona Public Service Co. SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 68
15 Chooz and Palo Verde where optimized in rather different ways: At an existing deep site (300 mwe) Homogeneous detector: antineutrinos are double coincidences Smaller detector (5 ton) but high effic. (~100%) 2 reactors: 8.5 GW th New reactors: zero power data (but worry they would not come up) Baselines 1115 m and 998 m Expect ~25 evts/day (no osc) At an artificial shallow site (32 mwe) Segmented detector: antineutrinos are 4-fold coincidences Larger detector (12 ton) but lower efficiency (~10%) 3 reactors: 11.6 GW th Well established reactors: can only turn off one at the time for background studies Baselines 890m and 750 m Expect ~50 evts/day (no osc) SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 69
16 SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 70
17 SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 71
18 Both detectors used Gd-loaded scintillator (0.1% by mass) to reduce the n-capture time from 170µs (p) to 27µs (Gd) to increase the n-capture energy from 2.2MeV (p) to 8MeV (Gd) PMT response Cell 1: August 2000: AL eff =343 cm August 1999: AL eff =357 cm August 1998: AL eff =389 cm Distance from PMT (cm) All cells effective attenuation lengths: August 2000: µ=298 cm August 1999: µ=309 cm August 1998: µ=350 cm AL eff (cm) This is not trivial for a detector of large dimensions (large light attenuation length, stability) SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 72
19 Chooz managed to start data taking before the reactors were fully commissioned, this provided zero power measurements and the demonstration that the detected neutrino rate is proportional to the reactor s thermal power Daily ν Candidates Chooz all data Reactor Power (GW) SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 73
20 neutrinos detected neutrinos expected 1.01±0.04 Chooz 1.04±0.08 Palo Verde so this time we do not see oscillations SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 74
21 Conclusion: The mixing angle is smaller than the sensitivity of these experiments: θ < 90% CL (Chooz) SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 75
22 The full mixing matrix can be parameterized using three angles θ 12 θ 23 θ 13, one CP violating phase δ CP, and two Majorana phases α, β U U = U U e1 µ 1 τ 1 U U U e2 µ 2 τ 2 U U U e3 µ 3 τ 3 = 0 0 cosθ iδ CP - e sinθ sinθ cosθ 12 - sinθ 0 sinθ iδ CP iα / 2 cosθ 23 sinθ cosθ 12 e - sinθ 23 cosθ e cosθ e 0 0 -iα/2+ iβ Conventionally we can take θ 12 to be associated with solar neutrino phenomena and hence m sol 2 = m 22 -m 1 2 having also found, from matter effects, that m 2 > m 1 SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 76
23 It then follows that m 3 must be separated from the m 1 m 2 pair by the larger m atm2 interval m 3 can be larger or smaller than m 1 and m 2 because matter effects play negligible role in atm neutrinos θ 23 is associated with the atm neutrino oscillations The expressions for the probabilities P(ν e ν e ), P(ν e ν µ ), P(ν µ ν µ ) and P(ν µ ν τ ) (from which all the others can be calculated using conservation of probability and CPT invariance) are in general quite complicated functions of the mixing angles, CP phases and m 2 (the Majorana phases are not relevant) [see for instance V.Barger et al hep-ph/ ] But for m 12 2 << m 23 2 and θ 13 0 P(ν µ ν τ ) [atm ν oscillation] and P(ν e ν e ) [solar/kl ν] are determined by independent parameters and 2-flavor approx. works well SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 77
24 So the neutrino sector is really strange! Log 10 mass [ev] d e c s u µ t b τ V CKM Adapted from PDG Upper limit on m ν U PMNS ( m 2 solar/kl )1/2 ( m 2 atm )1/ (0.0) 0.48(0.38) 0.53(0.60) (0.38) 0.67(0.60) 0.71 ( ) : value for θ 13 =0 δ=0 SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 78
25 What next? Precise meas. of θ (Borexino, KamLAND solar, future solar ν exp), 23 (Minos,, future accelerator exp), 2 12 (KamLAND reactor), 2 23 (Minos,, future accelerator exp) (Steve Elliott s talk) θ 23 m 12 m 23 Measure neutrino mass scale (Steve Elliott s talk) Make sure there are no surprises (miniboone Measure θ 13 Inverted or normal hierarchy (is m 3 > or < than m 1, m 2?) CP violation in the lepton sector (only possible if 13 turns out to be not too small) θ 13 miniboone,, Sam Zeller s talk) SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 79
26 What sensitivity we need to get to θ 13? No real information from theory ( U PNMS V CKM! ) If sin 2 2θ 13 <0.01 measuring CP and sign ( m 2 13) very hard From ~0.1 to ~0.01 is ~1 BJ unit It turns out that a sensitivity of 0.01 for θ 13 is (challenging but) possible for both accelerators and reactors SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 80

34 Method 2: Reactor Disappearance ν e ν e m31l 2 e sin 2θ 13 sin + O( α ) 4E P e Use a near detector to measure reactor flux, spectrum and detector efficiency to cancel all systematics Look for small deviation from 1/r 2 with plenty of reactor signal Possibly more limited in sensitivity but maybe good enough Cheaper than superbeam but limited in scope Very clean θ 13 measurement (no degeneracy, no matter effects) First explicit discussion of a θ 13 measurement using reactors: L.A. Mikaelyan, V.V. Sinev, Phys. Atom. Nucl. 63 No.6 (2000) 1002 SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 88
35 ~100m ~1000m The use of multiple baselines can reduce most of the systematics. Multi-baselines reactor measurements have been done in the past, more as a cross-check than as a method to increase the precision. 3 baselines baselines (with ONE detector) detector) at Goesgen Goesgen SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 89
36 Can one substantially improve on the Chooz errors? Best to-date systematics from Chooz Get zero statistical error large detector large reactor (maybe more than one?) Reduce reactor and x-section systematics 2 baseline measurement Reduce systematics from detector efficiency build identical near and far detectors, alternate their role during running (only time variations of efficiency matter) Keep backgrounds low and measure them well Do it overkill, this is a tricky measurement and better be right SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 90
37 Need underground detectors location (shielding) possibly with a tunnel that allows the placement and movement of detectors SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 91

40 Are backgrounds a problem? How deep does one have to go? Experiment Chooz Palo Verde Depth (mwe) Signal (ν day -1 ton -1 ) Bkgd (day -1 ton -1 ) S/N Depth helps! Large is good KamLAND *10-3 (no osc.) 1.7* Reduction of uncorrelated background requires low activity materials and shielding, generally not a big problem, it can be measured with good accuracy. Gd loading helps, but it also makes the scintillator less clean, there must be a tradeoff Correlated background from fast n and β-n n activity, both triggered by µ-spallation.. This is why the detector has to go underground. SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 94
41 Fast n background Example of a β-n n emitter SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 95
42 n-production from µ quite well studied at Palo Verde, high energy spectrum and vetoed events can be used to predict background in the interesting region Measurement of bkgnd to 20% appears possible 25mwe Bezrukov 20mwe SUF 32mwe Palo Verde 316mwe Bezrukov FLUKA 750mwe Enikeev Y-F.Wang, L.Miller, GG; Phys.

50 A few words on applied neutrino physics Neutrino energy spectrum is a bit different for each of the 4 leading isotopes The antineutrino count rate varies in a known way as Pu is produced even at constant power Deviations from the expected trajectory with known power may reveal improper reactor use ν rate is directly related to power with known U/Pu ratio Example: ν counts 20 kg of fuel containing Pu are replaced with fresh U and then the reactor is restarted at the same power level A.Bernstein et al.

53 Limitations of conventional accelerator-based ν sources In a conventional accelerator-driven neutrino source neutrinos are produced by the decay of secondary particles (mainly π,, K) π and K are short lived, so focusing/momentum selection are very challenging µ are stopped to try limiting the ν produced in their decay SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 107
54 How about boosting a reactor, i.e. using neutrinos produced by whatever is stored in the accelerator can store µ: neutrino factory or unstable nuclei: β-beams no background neutrino species to worry about sharp energy (essentially from the boost) well understood divergence (again from the boost) (conceptually) easy to switch polarity The ideal neutrino mixing Lab! Unfortunately µ and unstable nuclei are by definition unstable particles, so their production and acceleration with large intensity is challenging SSI 2004 Experimental Neutrino Oscillations - Gratta 108

59 Conclusions I have covered a small fraction of the different ideas and experiments connected to neutrino mixing (apologize for the many items that I left out) This is a fantastic field in rapid development It is a very broad field where fantasy is rewarded and surprises are common You should formulate and resolve the next puzzle!!
