Title: Puzzling Out Neutrino Mixing
through Golden Measurements
Abstract:
Neutrino experimental data suggest the existence of new physics with a new
scale $\Lambda$ associated to it. A measurement of neutrino masses would
guide us towards this new energy scale. Neutrino oscillation experiments
are able to determine neutrino mass differences and mixing parameters,
helping us reach a better understanding of fermion masses. Despite all the
planned effort in the short-future oscillation experiments, two neutrino
mixing parameters, the CP-odd phase $\delta$ and the mixing angle
$\theta_{13}$, may remain obscure ten years from now. In order to
determine them, we have considered the combination of the resuls from two
future experiments: the Superbeams facility plus the Neutrino factory, two
sucessive steps towards the same physics goals.
