The compact emulsion spectrometer

An emulsion spectrometer has been built and tested with pion beams in a 0.7 T magnetic field. A momentum resolution, Delta P/P=13%+or-1%, has been obtained for 5 and 10 GeV/c particle

A B₄C-silicon target for the detection of neutrino interactions

This note describes the construction of a target for neutrino interactions composed of passive boron carbide plates interleaved with silicon microstrip detectors. The target contains four layers of passive material with a total mass of 45 kg and 600 single-sided silicon microstrip detectors with a total surface of 1.14 m<sup>2</sup> distributed over five layers. It is installed in the NOMAD spectrometer at the CERN SPS neutrino beam. During the 1997 run about 8000ν<sub>μ</sub> charged current interactions were estimated to have occurred in the target. For these events it will be possible to perform a precise measurement of both vertex and kinematical variables. This will provide invaluable experience towards the construction of a future large-scale silicon tracker for neutrino oscillation experiments
