The T2K “far detector” is the tried-and-tested Super-Kamiokande 50kt water Cherenkov detector, and the beam is optimised to enhance the oscillation signal and to suit the energies at which Super-Kamiokande can best measure the incoming neutrino type and energy.</p> <p>Both the beam and the way its neutrinos interact with water must be very well understood for an oscillation discovery to be made, and a “near detector” will be positioned a few hundred metres from the beam origin to make measurements on the beam before it starts oscillating.</p> <p>UK institutes are involved in many aspects of T2K construction from the beam onwards, and in particular we are building a system of electromagnetic calorimeters for the near detector.</p> </div> <div align="center"> <h3>Other Links</h3><a href="http://www-nu.kek.jp/jhfnu/index_e.html" alt="Introduction to T2K at KEK">Introduction to T2K at KEK</a><br> <a href="http://www-sk.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/sk/index-e.html" alt="Super-Kamiokande">Super-Kamiokande</a><br> <!-- <hr> <div align="left"> <a href="http://www.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk/~yoshiu">Yoshi.Uchida@imperial.ac.uk</a> </div> --> </div> </body> |
