Description
The goal of the Double Chooz reactor experiment is the measurement of the θ13 neutrino mixing angle using two identical detectors at two different distance. The R and D is in the last stage and the detector construction is being started. The far detector is planned to start in 2009 and the near detector in 2010. After 3 years of operation, the sensitivity on sin2 2θ13 will be 0.03. The paper presents the overview, the status and prospects of the experiment
