摘要

New low-cost, high-power proton cyclotrons open the opportunity for a novel precision search for CP violation in the light neutrino sector. The accelerators can produce decay-at-rest neutrino beams located at multiple distances from a Gd-doped ultralarge water Cherenkov detector in order to search for CP violation in (nu) over bar (mu) -> (nu) over bar (e) oscillations at short baselines. This new type of search complements presently proposed experiments, providing measurements that could lead to a substantially better exploration of CP violation in the neutrino sector.
