The WAGASCI detector as an off-axis near detector of the T2K and Hyper-Kamiokande experiments

In the search for CP violation at the T2K and future Hyper-Kamiokande experiments, it is crucial to reduce the present systematic uncertainties. The current T2K near detector, ND280, reduces the uncertainties coming from the neutrino beam and cross-section models from $11.9\mathrm{\%}$ to $5.4\mathrm{\%}$ in the ${\nu }_e$ appearance channel. These residual uncertainties mostly come from intrinsic limitations of ND280 due to its difference in target material and angular acceptance with the far detector.\ In order to show evidence (subsequently observation) of the CP violation in the T2K phase-II and Hyper-Kamiokande experiments, this paper proposes an upgrade of the ND280 detector. It uses a 3D grid scintillator structure surrounded by Time Projecting Chambers in order to reconstruct particles with $\sim 4\pi$ acceptance.
