Effect of non-unitary mixing on the mass hierarchy and CP violation determination at the Protvino to ORCA experiment

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we have estimated the neutrino mass ordering and the CP violation sensitivity of the proposed Protvino to ORCA (P2O) experiment after 6 years of data-taking. Both unitary and non-unitary $$3\times 3$$ 3 × 3 neutrino mass mixing have been considered in the simulations. A forecast analysis deriving possible future constraints on non-unitary parameters at P2O have been performed.
