Scientific paper

One of the main interests for nowadays neutrino physics is the knowledge of the mixing angle Θ13. The present limit is given by the CHOOZ experiment. The Double Chooz Collaboration aims for a reactor antineutrino flux measurement with two identical detectors placed at ~250 m and respectively ~1 km from the reactor cores as the search for a non-vanishing Θ13 value. Within 3 years of data taking and a 0.6% relative detector uncertainty, the limit on sin2(2Θ13) is smaller than 0.025 at 90% C.L. The Double Chooz experiment is planned to start in spring 2009 and will rapidly improve the present constrain on Θ13 serving in this way as a guide for the future neutrino experiments.
