The LSND experiment has observed a 3.8 sigma excess of anti-nu_e events from
an anti-nu_mu beam coming from pions at rest. If confirmed, the LSND anomaly
would imply new physics beyond the standard model, presumably in the form of
some additional sterile neutrinos. The MiniBooNE experiment at FNAL-Booster has
further searched for the LSND anomaly. Above 475 MeV, the nu_e result is
excluding the LSND anomaly to about 1.6 sigma but it introduces an unexplained,
new 3.0 sigma anomaly at lower energies, down to 200 MeV. The nu_e data have so
far an insufficient statistics to be conclusive with LSND's anti-nu_e. The
present proposal at the CERN-PS is based on two strictly identical LAr-TPC
detectors in the near and far positions, respectively at 127 and 850 m from the
neutrino (or antineutrino) target and focussing horn, observing the
electron-neutrino signal. This project will benefit from the already developed
technology of ICARUS T600, well tested on surface in Pavia, without the need of
any major R&D activity and without the added problems of an underground
experiment (CNGS-2). The superior quality of the Liquid Argon imaging TPC and
its unique electron - pi-zero discrimination allow full rejection of the NC
background, without efficiency loss for electron neutrino detection. In two
years of exposure, the far detector mass of 600 tons and a reasonable
utilization of the CERN-PS with the refurbished previous TT7 beam line will
allow to collect about 10^6 charged current events, largely adequate to settle
definitely the LSND anomaly.Comment: 23 pages, 17 figures, added watermark, better referencin
