Contribution
It introduces a next-generation magnetized calorimeter specifically optimized for detailed neutrino oscillation studies at Gran Sasso.
Findings
Potential to observe the full L/E oscillation pattern
Enhanced sensitivity to neutrino oscillation parameters
Progress in detector design and deployment plans
Abstract
MONOLITH is a massive magnetized tracking calorimeter, optimized for the detection of atmospheric muon neutrinos, proposed at the Gran Sasso laboratory in Italy. The main goal is to establish (or reject) the neutrino oscillation hypothesis through an explicit observation of the full first oscillation swing (the ``L/E pattern''). Its performance, status and prospects are briefly reviewed.
