The Sensitivity to Mass Hierarchy
determination of Future Reactor
Neutrino experiments
In collaborationwith S.F. Ge, N. Okamura and K. Hagiwara

9. Analysis method
We define
Naively, the significance of this
rejection is , but…

Not appropreate
for the MH determination
c.f.) Qian et.al. arXiv: 1210.3651
Evslin et.al. arXiv: 1305.5150
NH is true: tends to be Positive.
IH is true: tends to be Negative.
IH is rejected
NH is rejected
NH is true case

18. How to achieve better Energy Resolution?
Increase the photo-electron (p.e.)detected by PMT.
p.e.~ 200 pe/MeV ~ 2000 pe/MeV
Ex)
• Increase PMT coverage
• Increase QE of PMT
• More transparent LS

25. Summary
Future Reactor neutrino Experiment for MH determination
For > 3-sigma determination within 5 years
a < 3%
b < 0.5%
of Energy Resolution is required
with 16.5GW 18kton Reactor Complex.
Interference among reactor cores significantly affects
the sensitivity.
•Energy Scale uncertainty should be controlled very carefully.
arXiv: 0901.2976, 1208.1551, 1308.0591
* Neutrino parameters can be determined with < 1% accuracy.
