Description

KASKA is a reactor neutrino experiment to measure θ13 accurately. The sensitivity reach of sin22θ13 will be 0.015 in its first phase. Higher accuracy θ13measurement, precise θ12 measurement and first Δm132 measurement are also in consideration in future extensions of the experiment. A brief description of the KASKA project and its R and D activities are presented.
