Abstract
The Super-Kamiokande detector has been obtaining data since 1996 and has produced many important physics re- sults, including measurements of oscillations in atmospheric, solar and accelerator neutrinos. This paper discusses the prospects for Super-Kamiokande over the next 10 years and the capabilities of the next-generation experiment, Hyper-Kamiokande. Indeed, the T2K and reactor neutrino experiments have established that the mixing angle θ13 is relatively large, and therefore measurements of the CP phase using a large scale accelerator neutrino experiment such as Hyper-Kamiokande are possible. In addition, since Hyper-Kamiokande is a multi-purpose detector, studies of the mass hierarchy using atmospheric neutrinos, searches for proton decay and measurements of astrophysical neutrinos can also be performed.
