Contribution
It introduces the joint ICANOE/OPERA program, combining atmospheric and accelerator neutrino observations with improved detection techniques and a 730 km baseline from CERN.
Findings
Enhanced atmospheric neutrino observation techniques.
Sensitive detection of numu->nue and numu->nutau appearance.
Improved understanding of neutrino oscillation effects.
Abstract
We discuss two experiments ICANOE and OPERA that have been proposed within the context of long-baseline and atmospheric neutrino experiments in Europe. The joint ICANOE/OPERA program aims at further improving our understanding of the effect seen in atmospheric neutrinos. This program is based on (1) a continuation of the observation of atmospheric neutrinos with the improved technique of ICANOE/ICARUS (2) a sensitive numu->nue and numu->nutau appearance program with the accelerator neutrinos coming from CERN (CNGS) from a distance of 730 km.
