Description
T2K is a long baseline neutrino beam experiment scheduled to begin operation in 2009. The energy of the muon neutrino beam from JPARC and the distance (295 km) to the far detector (Super-Kamiokande) have been chosen to maximize sensitivity to electron neutrino appearance through neutrino oscillation. By identifying this oscillation signal from among backgrounds, including NC pi0 production, a limit or measurement on theta 13 can be made.
