First we will discuss the potentialities of atmospheric neutrinos on general basis, presenting our results in the form of neutrino oscillograms of the Earth: contour plots in the neutrino energy--nadir angle plane. In this context we will analyze in detail the various signatures related to theta_13, to the neutrino mass hierarchy, to the octant of theta_23 and to the delta_CP phase which appear for different values of the neutrino energy and baseline. Then we will consider concrete experimental setups, showing that synergic effects exist between atmospheric and long-baseline neutrino data: the combination of the two data sets is much more powerful than the simple sum of the sensitivity of each individual data sample.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-10-08T14:03:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "long-baseline experiments", "neutrino energy-nadir angle plane", "megaton-class neutrino detector", "atmospheric neutrino data", "neutrino mass hierarchy" ], "note": { "typesetting": "PDFLaTeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 798889, "adsabs": "2008arXiv0810.1440M" } } }
