233The decay of proton is the most exciting prediction of Grand Unified Theories \cite{Nath:2006ut}.
234Several experiments have been built to search for it, with no discovery yet.
235The window between predicted (in the simplest models typically below $10^{37} $ years) and excluded
236 \cite{Kobayashi:2005pe}
237(O($10^{33}$) years, depending on the channel) lifetimes is, however, within our reach,
238and the demand to fill the gap grows.
239Also a negative result would be important to rule out certain models
240(like minimal SU(5) \cite{Georgi:1974sy}) or constrain the parameter range.
241Identifying the proton decay and life time would set a firm scale for any unified theory, narrowing
242the scope for possible models and their parameters. This would be a mandatory step to go forward
243with the physics beyond the Standard Model, now partially stalled due to missing experimental data.
244
245The interior of the Earth is known unbelievably ill. We know much better what happens inside
246the Sun than inside our own planet. There are very few messengers
247that can give information from below the reach of drill holes, and mere theory is not sufficient for building
248a credible model for the Earth. However, there is a new unexploited window to the Earth interior,
249by observing neutrinos produced in the radioactive decays of heavy elements in the matter. Until now only KamLAND
250experiment  \cite{Araki:2005qa} has been able to study geoneutrinos,
251but its event rate does not allow significant conclusions.
252
253Neutrinos are important messengers from stars. Indeed, neutrino astronomy has a glorious history, from the detection
254of solar neutrinos
255 \cite{Davis:1968cp,Hirata:1989zj,Anselmann:1992um,Abdurashitov:1994bc,Smy:2002rz,Aharmim:2005gt,Altmann:2005ix}

260acknowledged by Nobel Prizes for Koshiba and Ray Davis. These observations have given valuable information both from
261the stars and from the properties of the neutrinos. However, much more information would be available, if the neutrino spectra of
262stellar neutrinos would be known better. While the properties of neutrinos become better defined by other experiments,
263specific neutrino observations could give detailed information on the conditions of the production zone,
264whether in the Sun or a future galactic supernova.
265The latter would be extremely important as the explosion of the collapsed star is still a puzzle.
266An even more fascinating challenge would be to observe neutrinos from extragalactic supernovae, either from identified sources
267or a diffuse flux from unidentified supernovae from the past.
268
269Observing neutrinos produced in the atmosphere as cosmic ray secondaries
270 \cite{Aglietta:1988be,Hirata:1988uy,Hirata:1992ku,Becker-Szendy:1992hq,Daum:1994bf,Allison:1999ms,Ashie:2005ik} 
271gave the first compelling evidence
272on neutrino oscillation  \cite{Fukuda:1998mi}. While the puzzle of missing atmospheric neutrinos can be considered solved,
273there remains challenges to study the sub dominant oscillation phenomena. Particularly, precise measurements of
274atmospheric neutrinos would help to resolve ambiguities and degeneracies that hamper the interpretation
275of other experiments, particularly future long baseline neutrino oscillation searches.
276
277These fascinating phenomena can be investigated with novel multipurpose experiments.
278The new experiments must be necessarily very large and they must have extremely low background.
279The required signal to noise ratio can be achieved only in well protected laboratories deep underground.
280We identify three complementary technologies to respond to the challenge:
281\begin{enumerate}
282\item \WC\ detector:
283As the cheapest available target material water is the only liquid that is realistic for extremely large detectors,
284up to several hundreds or thousands of kilotons. \WC\ detectors have rather good resolution for energy,
285position and direction. The technology is well proven, used previously in IMB, Kamiokande and SuperKamiokande.
286

288%\REDBLA{
289\item Liquid Scintillator: Experiments using liquid scintillators
290provide a high energy resolution and a low energy threshold.  They are
291particularly attractive for low energy detection, for example solar
292neutrinos or geoneutrinos.  Liquid scintillator detectors are also
293based on an established technology, to name Borexino
294\cite{Back:2004zn} and KamLAND \cite{Araki:2004mb} as examples of
295previous experiments of regular scale.

301Experience from such detectors has been gained with ICARUS \cite{Amerio:2004ze,Arneodo:2001tx}.
302\end{enumerate}
303Three experiments are proposed to employ these techniques: MEMPHYS \cite{deBellefon:2006vq} for \WC,

309and GLACIER \cite{Rubbia:2004tz,Rubbia:2004yq,Ereditato:2004ru} for Liquid Argon.
310The purpose of this report is to study the physics potential of these experiments and rise some complementary aspects between the three techniques.
311
312Possible neutrino beams from future accelerators would provide an additional bonus for these experiments.
313Measuring the oscillation of controllably made neutrinos with a sufficiently long baseline would allow to determine the
314properties of neutrinos (particularly the mixing angle $\theta_{13}$, as well as CP violation) with an improved accuracy.
315The considered detectors may be used for observing neutrinos from beta and superbeams,
316in the optimal energy range characteristic to each experiment. A common example
317is a low energy ($\gamma \sim 100$) beta beam from CERN to MEMPHYS at Frejus, 130 km apart
318 \cite{Campagne:2006yx}.
319However, higher energy beams up to O(6 GeV) have been suggested \cite{Rubbia:2006pi},
320favouring longer distances up to O(2000 km).
321The neutrino factory would require a magnetized detector, which is beyond the scope of this study.
322 
323A major experiment provides possibilities for major surprises. The history of neutrino astrophysics, like the history
324of science, has demonstrated that many experiments have made their glory with other discoveries that they were
325mainly intended for, just to name the proton decay experiments observing neutrinos. All of the three proposed experiments,
326with a huge improvement on size and resolution, will have a significant potential for surprises to be discovered.

331%%%%The pioneer \WC~detectors (IMB, Kamiokande) were built to look for nucleon decay, a prediction of Grand Unified Theories. Unfortunately, no discovery was made in this field and the neutrino physics has been the bread and butter since the beginning of running time of these detectors. Just to remind the glorious past: first detection of a supernova neutrino explosion (SN1987A)  \cite{Hirata:1987hu,Hirata:1988ad,Aglietta:1987we,Bionta:1987qt} acknowledged by the Nobel prize for Koshiba, Solar  \cite{Hirata:1989zj} and atmospheric anomalies discovery  \cite{Hirata:1988uy,Fukuda:1998mi} which have been explained as mass \& mixing of the neutrinos, the latter being confirmed by the first long base line neutrino beam, i.e. the K2K experiment  \cite{Aliu:2004sq}.

411The basic idea behind this detector is to use a single 100~kton ``boiling'' cryogenic tanker with Argon refrigeration (in particular,
412the cooling is done directly with Argon, e.g. without nitrogen). Events can be reconstructed in 3D using the
413information provided by ionization, in the fact the imaging capabilities make this detector an "electronic bubble chamber". Scintillation and \v{C}erenkov light readout complete the event information.
414
415One can profit from the ICARUS R\&D
416which has shown that it is possible to operate PMTs immersed directly in the liquid Argon \cite{Amerio:2004ze}.
417%One is using commercial
418%Electron Tubes 8'' PMTs with a photocathode for cold operation and
419%a standard glass window.
420In order to be sensitive to DUV scintillation,
421the PMTs are coated with a wavelength shifter (Tetraphenyl-Butadiene).
422About 1000~immersed phototubes with WLS would
423be used to identify the (isotropic and bright) scintillation light. To detect
424\v{C}erenkov radiation about 27000 immersed
425~8''-phototubes without WLS would provide a 20\% coverage of the surface
426of the detector. As already mentioned, these latter PMTs should have single photon
427counting capabilities in order to count the number of \v{C}erenkov photons.
428
429Charge amplification and an extreme purity is needed to allow the foreseen long drifts ($\approx 20\rm\ m$), so the detector will run in bi-phase mode. Namely, drift electrons produced in the liquid phase are extracted from the liquid into the gas phase with
430the help of an electric field of the order of $3\ \rm kV/cm$ to compensate the charge attenuation along drift.
431The charge will be amplied and read by means of Large Electron Multiplier (LEM) devices.
432A possible extension of the present design is the use of an external magnetic field.
433
434Contact with the LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) and Technodyne LtD have been taken to make feasibility studies to build such cryogenic detector in underground site.

578%The LENA detector is planned
579%to have a cylindrical shape with about $100$~m length and 30~m
580%diameter (\refFig{fig:Phys-LENAdetector} and \refTab{tab:Phys-detector-summary}).
581%An inside part of 13~m radius will contain approximately
582%50~kt of liquid scintillator while the outside part will be filled
583%with water to act as a muon veto. A fiducial volume for proton decay
584%will be defined having a radius of 12~m. Covering about 30$\%$ of the
585%surface, 12\,000 photomultipliers of 50~cm diameter each will collect
586%the light produced by the scintillator. PXE (phenyl-o-xylylethane) is
587%foreseen as scintillator solvent because of its high light yield and
588%its safe handling procedures. The optical properties of a liquid
589%scintillator based on PXE have been investigated in the Counting Test
590%Facility (CTF) for BOREXINO at the Gran Sasso underground
591%laboratory~ \cite{CTF}. A yield of 372~$\pm$~8 photoelectrons per MeV
592%(pe/MeV) have been measured in this experiment with an optical
593%coverage of 20$\%$. The attenuation length of $\sim$~3~m (at 430~nm)
594%was substantially increased to $\sim$~12~m purging the liquid in a
595%weak acidic alumina column  \cite{CTF}. With these values an expected
596%photoelectron yield of $\sim$~120~pe/MeV can be estimated for events
597%in the center of the LENA detector. Currently the optical properties
598%of mixtures of PXE and derivatives of mineral oils are under
599%investigation  \cite{PXE}.

604The LENA detector is cylindrical in shape, with a length of about
605100\,m and 30\,m diameter (\refFig{fig:Phys-LENAdetector}).
606An inside part of 13\,m radius
607contains approximately $5 \times 10^7$\,m$^3$ of liquid scintillator
608while the outside part is filled with water acting as a muon
609veto. Both the outer and the inner volume are enclosed in steel tanks
610of 3 to 4\,cm wall thickness. For most purposes, a fiducial volume at
6111\,m distance to the inner tank walls is defined, corresponding to
61288\,$\%$ of the inner detector volume.
613
614The axis of the detector is aligned horizontally. A tunnel-shaped
615cavern harbouring the detector is well feasible at most locations. In
616respect to accelerator physics, the axis should be oriented towards
617the neutrino source (e.g. CERN) in order to contain the full length of
618muon and electron tracks.
619
620The default setting for light detection in the inner detector is the
621mounting of 12\,000 photomultipliers (PMTs) of 20'' diameter each to
622the inner cylinder wall, covering about 30\,$\%$ of the surface. As
623an option, light concentrators can be installed in front of the PMTs,
624increasing the surface coverage $c$ to values of more than
62550\,$\%$. Alternatively, $c=30\,\%$ can be reached by the equipment of
6268'' PMTs with light concentrators, thereby reducing costs compared to
627the default setting. Additional PMTs are supplied in the outer muon
628veto to detect the \v{C}erenkov light of incoming particles.
629
630Possible candidates for the liquid scintillator are (1.) pure PXE
631(phenyl-o-xylylethane), (2.) a mixture of 20\,$\%$ PXE and 80\,$\%$
632Dodecane, or (3.) Linear Alkylbenzene (LAB). All three liquids are of
633minor toxicity to the environment and provide high flash and
634inflammation points.

639%\begin{enumerate}
640%\item PXE (C$_{16}$H$_{18}$, $\rho \simeq 0.985$\,g/cm$^3$) has already been tested in the Counting Test Facility of the BOREXINO experiment. Combining the CTF data  \cite{Back:2004zn} with results of laboratory measurements done both in Heidelberg and in Munich  \cite{Wurm:2005thesis}, a light yield of about 10$^4$\,photons/MeV can be reached by adding 6\,g/l PPO 20\,mg/l bisMSB as primary and secondary fluors that shift the scintillation light to 430\,nm. At this wavelength, attenuation lengths of up to 12\,m can be achieved after purification of PXE in an aluminum column  \cite{Back:2004zn}. For an event in the center of the LENA detector, a photoelectron (pe) yield of about $400c$\,pe/MeV is therefore feasible.
641%\item The admixture of Dodecane (C$_{12}$H$_{26}$, $\rho \simeq 0.749$\,g/cm$^3$) both lowers the light yield and increases the transparency of the scintillator. The effective photoelectron yield is comparable to the one of PXE up to about 80 mass percent of Dodecane. The resulting increase in the number of free protons and therefore in events due to the inverse beta decay of $\bar\nu_e$ is $\sim26\,\%$.
642%\item LAB (C$_{17.6}$H$_{30}$, $\rho \simeq 0.862$\,g/cm$^3$), a basic and therefore cheap ingredient of many detergents, has been tested as a liquid scintillator for the SNO+ experiment. Laboratory measurements done by the SNO collaboration show excellent light yield and transparency. Investigations in Munich are in preparation.

657%LENA (Fig.~\ref{fig:Phys-LENAdetector})  \cite{LENA} is the foreseen extrapolation up to $50$~kT ($\phi=30$~m, $Leangth=100$~m) of PXE Liquid Scintillator surrounded by a water active veto shielding.

661The MEMPHYS detector (\refFig{fig:Phys-MEMPHYSdetector}) is an extrapolation of SuperKamiokande up to $730$~kT. This \WC\ detector is a collection of up to 5 shafts, and 3 are enough for 440~kt fiducial mass which is used hereafter. Each shaft is 65~m in diameter and 65~m height for the total water container dimensions, and this represent an extrapolation of a factor 4 with respect to the Super-Kamiokande running detector. The PMT surface defined as 2~m inside the water container is covered by about 81,000 12" PMTs to reach a 30\% surface coverage equivalent to a 40\% coverage with 20" PMTs. The fiducial volume is defined by an additional conservative guard of 2~m. The outer volume  between the PMT surface and the water vessel is instrumented with 8" PMTs. If not contrary mentionned, the Super-Kamiokande analysis (efficiency, background reduction)  is used to compute the physcis potential of such a detector. In the US and in Japan, there are two competitors to MEMPHYS, namely UNO and Hyper-Kamiokande. These projects are similar in many respects and the hereafter presented physics potential may be transposed also for those detectors\footnote{Specific characteristics that are not identical to the projects concern the distance to accelerators or reactors}. Currently, there is a very promising on going R\&D activity concerning the possibility to introduce Gadolinium salt (GdCl${}_3$) in side SuperKamiokande. The physics goal is to decrease the background in many physics channels by tagging the neutron produced in the inverse beta decay interaction of $\bar{\nu}_e$ on free protons. For instance, 100~tons of GdCl${}_3$ in Super-Kamiokande would yield more then 90\% neutron captures on Gd  \cite{Beacom:2003nk}.

698The three proposed detectors (MEMPHYS, LENA, GLACIER) based on completely different detection techniques (\WC, Liquid Scintillator, Liquid Argon) share to a large extent a very rich physics program and in some cases their detection specificities are complementary. A brief summary of the scientific case is presented both for non-accelerator based topics and the accelerator neutrino oscillation topic on tables \ref{tab:Phys-potential-summary1} and \ref{tab:Phys-potential-summary2}, respectively.
