| ABSTRACT: |
Determination of the Neutrino Mass Hierarchy is of key importance to understanding the physics of neutrino mass and leptonic flavor mixing yet the methods proposed so far require both neutrino and anti-neutrino running in long baseline experiments. It will be argued in this talk, that if T2K and NOvA run at the same mean neutrino energy divided by baseline, /L, then the neutrino mass hierarchy can be determined with only neutrino running provided that the 13 mixing angle is large. In the proposed configuration, the method insensitive to the value of the CP violating phase. Knowledge of the mass hierarchy could be crucial for the discovery of CP violation in the neutrino sector. |
