The Reach of INO for Atmospheric Neutrino Oscillation Parameters

Abstract

The India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) will host a 50 kt magnetized iron calorimeter (ICAL@INO) for the study of atmospheric neutrinos. Using the detector resolutions and efficiencies obtained by the INO collaboration from a full-detector GEANT4-based simulation, we determine the reach of this experiment for the measurement of the atmospheric neutrino mixing parameters (${\sin }^2{\theta }_{23}$ and $|\Delta m_{32}^2|$). We also explore the sensitivity of this experiment to the deviation of ${\theta }_{23}$ from maximal mixing, and its octant.
