Neutrino Oscillation Measurements with KM3NeT/ORCA

KM3NeT/ORCA is an underwater neutrino telescope which is currently being deployed in the Mediterranean Sea. Its geometry has been optimized for the study of neutrino oscillations using atmospheric neutrinos (within an energy range of 1–100 GeV). In particular, this will allow to measure the neutrino...
