Ideas for a long-baseline neutrino detector
Description
The Atmospheric Neutrino Deficit defines a region in Δm2-sin22θ space which ought to be conclusively tested in a long-baseline experiment. This talk sets out a region to cover (which may change as more data is analyzed) and translates that region into an L/E. I present exclusion curves for different experiments based on their distance and their precision; I conclude that an experiment which can detect oscillations down to 1% located at 1200 km will cleanly test the allowed region from Kamioka and IMB. I then describe the techniques which can perform such a measurement and outline both a detector capable of performing such an experiment and some of the systematic problems we might expect
