(Updated)
Preliminary
Mass hierarchy: OA1.0 @Korea gives the best sensitivity
CP violation: Sensitivity depends weekly on the beam option
Could be slightly too optimistic for OA angle less than 2.5 degrees (The syst errors are assumed to be fully correlated between 2 detectors)

Update (3):Update (3): Octant ambiguity of Octant ambiguity of 2323
In the previous study, maximal 23 mixing (23=/4) was assumed. However, 23 might not be /4. In this case, there should be additional ambiguity in the parameter measurements (especially in that of sin213) due to the ambiguity in the octant of 23 (i.e., 23 >45 or <45 deg.).
It will be very nice if the same setup can solve the octant ambiguity of 23.
Oscillation probabilities and the signal Oscillation probabilities and the signal P(e) by the solar m2 is proportional to

Octant ambiguity of 23 can be resolved at 2 if sin2223 < ~0.97 (almost independent of the value of sin2213 and mass hierarchy).

Could resolve the 8 hold degeneracy of the oscillation parameters.

If non-zero 13 is observed….
• We hope to proceed to the next phase of experiment with higher power beam and larger detector(s).
• Goals: discovery of leptonic CP violation, and determination of mass hierarchy and octant of 23. (+ Various non-LBL physics).
• T2KK is one of the serious possibilities.• We will continue the studies.
