摘要
In this work, we have explored the possibilities of improving CP violation (CPV) discovery potential of newly planned Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE), USA, by combining with data from reactors. The third mixing angle theta(13) is now very precisely measured and this precise measurement of theta(13) helps in the measurement of CPV. Here, CPV is studied with and without data from reactors. The impact of placing a neutrino data (ND) is also studied. It is found that CPV discovery potential of LBNE with ND increases when combined with data from reactors. With a far detector of 35 kt, it is possible to obtain 5 sigma sensitivity of CPV when run for 5 years in nu and 5 years in (nu) over bar mode. When normal hierarchy is assumed, CPV sensitivity is maximum. CPV discovery is possible by combining 5 years neutrino data from LBNE with 3 years anti-neutrino data from reactors. This study reveals that CPV can also be discovered at 5 sigma cl in inverted mass hierarchy (IH) mode when appearance measurement of LBNE is combined with reactors.
