Scientific paper

OPERA is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment whose main goal is to detect for the first time neutrino oscillations in an appearance mode. Using an almost pure vμ beam we search for a vμ<-->vτ, transition detecting in a direct way the τ lepton. The detector is located on the high-energy, long-baseline CERN to LNGS beam (CNGS) at a baseline of 730 km. The apparatus consists of a target made of lead/emulsion-films bricks and of electronic detectors which are used to tag the neutrino interaction. Experiment description and results from the short but fruitful 2007 CNGS run are reported in details.
