Neutrinos: Detectors

Scientific paper

The latest evolutions of the ICARUS project are reviewed. During 1998 the collaboration has been heavily involved in the construction of the first full scale prototypes of the 600 ton ICARUS detector. Cryogenic and purification tests as well as mechanical tests on a wire chamber module, are presently under completion. The authors hope to be ready for the commissioning of the major detector components by the end of 1998. Also, the Long Baseline Neutrino Oscillation program has been subject to a rapid acceleration. Following a formal proposal, submitted and approved at the beginning of 1998 by the CERN SPSLC, a working group has been formed to study the details of the beam and a sensitive program has been formulated by which first neutrinos can be sent to the Gran Sasso at the end of year 2001.
