Experimental Requirements to Determine the Neutrino Mass Hierarchy Using Reactor Neutrinos

This paper presents experimental requirements to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy using reactor neutrinos. The detector shall be located at a baseline around 58 km from the reactor(s) to measure the energy spectrum of electron antineutrinos ($\bar{\nu}_e$) precisely. By applying Fourier cosine and sine transform to the L/E spectrum, features of the neutrino mass hierarchy can be extracted from the $|\Delta{m}^2_{31}|$ and $|\Delta{m}^2_{32}|$ oscillations. To determine the neutrino mass hierarchy above 90% probability, requirements to the baseline, the energy resolution, the energy scale uncertainty, the detector mass and the event statistics are studied at different values of $\sin^2(2\theta_{13})$Comment: Update Fig.
