dc.descriptionWe analyze the prospects of a feasible, Brookhaven National Laboratory based, very long baseline (BVLB) neutrino oscillation experiment consisting of a conventional horn produced low energy wide band beam and a detector of 500 kT fiducial mass with modest requirements on event recognition and resolution. Such an experiment is intended primarily to determine CP violating effects in the neutrino sector for 3-generation mixing. We analyze the sensitivity of such an experiment. We conclude that this experiment will allow determination of the CP phase $δ_{CP}$ and the currently unknown mixing parameter $θ_{13}$, if $\sin ^2 2 θ_{13} \geq 0.01$, a value $\sim 15$ times lower than the present experimental upper limit. In addition to $θ_{13}$ and $δ_{CP}$, the experiment has great potential for precise measurements of most other parameters in the neutrino mixing matrix including $Δm^2_{32}$, $\sin^2 2θ_{23}$, $Δm^2_{21}\times \sin 2 θ_{12}$, and the mass ordering of neutrinos through the observation of the matter effect in the $ν_μ\to ν_e$ appearance channel.
