Abstract:

A

\beta

-beam with maximum

\gamma=150

(for \helio ions) or

\gamma=250

(for \neon) could be achieved at the CERN-SPS. We study the sensitivity to

\theta_{13}

and

\delta

of such a beam as function of

\gamma

, optimizing with the baseline constrained to CERN-Frejus (130 km), and also with simultaneous variation of the baseline. These results are compared to the {\it standard} scenario previously considered, with lower

\gamma=60/100

, and also with a higher

\gamma\sim 350

option that requires a more powerful accelerator. Although higher

\gamma

is better, loss of sensitivity to

\theta _{13}

and

\delta

is most pronounced for

\gamma

below 100.
