Waiting for the neutrino beam

 

LNGS - June 22, 2006

“Fermi” lecture hall

 

The CNGS project is starting: a beam of muon neutrinos produced at CERN and useful for physics will be delivered soon at Gran Sasso Laboratory. The Opera experiment, explicitly designed to see the appearance of tau neutrinos, is a unique apparatus for demonstrating the neutrino oscillation. Other experiments, like LVD, Icarus and Borexino offer the possibility to monitor and study the beam products.

Waiting for the CNGS neutrinos, we are organizing a one-day meeting to listen to presentations from the experiments and to discuss the impact of the CNGS neutrino beam on the Gran Sasso Laboratory.
