The NOMAD Experiment : Status Report
Abstract
The NOMAD experiment has been designed to search for neutrino-tau appearance in the CERN wide-band neutrino beam . The detector is now completed and has been further improved. All subdetectors are working well. The experiment, where the search for oscillation is based on kinematical criteria, will reach the sensitivity dm2 > 0.7 eV2 for maximal mixing and dm2 > 50 eV2 for mixing angles sin2 2\theta > 3.8E-4 after 2 years of running, making possible to explore a region of cosmological interest. Preliminary measurements are presented from the 1994 and 1995 data samples.
