12 B And Li  Beam fluxes We consider 3 different fluxes “Nominal” 2·10 18 decays/year “Medium” 5·10 18 decays/year “Ultimate” 10·10 18 decays/year “Ultimate” flux at 2000km

13 The Detector 50kt Magnetized Iron Neutrino Detector: MIND We consider 9 bins of 1 GeV between 1.5-10.5 GeV 65% signal efficiency 10 -4 or 10 -5 backgrounds 2.5% and 5% or 10% and 20% systematics in signal and background Atmospheric background negligible a this energies with bunching ISS Detector Working Group arXiv:0712.4129 signal eff  0.7 CC charm  10 -4 -10 -5 CC no-charm  10 -4 -10 -5 NC  10 -4 -10 -5

14 Degeneracies at 2000km true solution sign degeneracy Nominal, Medium and Ultimate fluxes Loss of sensitivity to CP violation and the mass hierarchy at the 2000km baseline due to the sign degeneracy CP discovery potential

15 Combining the two baselines Nominal, Medium and Ultimate fluxes The sign degeneracy is solved at the 7000km baseline 2000km2000km + 7000km

16 CP discovery potential Nominal, Medium and Ultimate fluxes The CP discovery potential with the Ultimate and Medium flux between low and high  -Beam 2000km + 7000km ISS Physics Working Group arXiv:0710.4947

17  13 discovery potential Nominal, Medium and Ultimate fluxes 2000km + 7000km The Ultimate flux similar to high  -Beam The Medium flux between low and high  -Beam The Nominal flux similar to Super-Beams ISS Physics Working Group arXiv:0710.4947

18 Sensitivity to the mass hierarchy Nominal, Medium and Ultimate fluxes 2000km + 7000km All the fluxes worse than the optimum NF but better than the other facilities ISS Physics Working Group arXiv:0710.4947

19 Systematics and Backgrounds 2.5/5% and 10/20% systematic error considered Impact of the background and the systematic errors very small Performance limited by statistics No improvement if background is lowered below 10 -5 Effect of SystematycsEffect of Background 10 -5 and 10 -4 background considered

20 Conclusions Strong complementarity between the two baselines 2000km detector very sensitive to  but spoiled by sign degeneracies 7000km detector resonant dependence on the mass hierarchy and no dependence on  solves degeneracies With Medium flux sensitivity to  13  and the mass hierarchy down to sin 2 2  13  3·10 -4 Impact of the background and the systematic errors very small.
