摘要：In the next decade, a significant upgrade of the LHC injection system is planned with the aim
of fully exploiting the physics potential of this collider. In particular, the upgrade of the SPS
(Super-SPS) would allow proton injection with energy twice the one of the current system and
would ground on a firm basis the luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider. Beyond LHC
physics, this machine offers an unprecedented opportunity for the experimental determination
of the leptonic mixing matrix, particularly of Dirac CP violation. In this talk, we show that a
Beta Beam based on the Super-SPS and on a 40 kton iron detector at Gran Sasso can address CP
violation in the leptonic sector for any value of the q13 angle that gives a positive nm ne signal
in the forthcoming SuperBeam experiments (e.g. T2K). In general, we show that a Beam Beam
driven by the Super-SPS has a physics potential comparable to so-called "Phase II" SuperBeams
(e.g. JAERI to HyperKamiokande) but does not require the construction of ultra-massive detectors
and offers a fascinating synergy with high energy collider physics and nuclear physics.
