Abstract

The ICARUS project aims at building a large mass (5 ktons) liquid Argon TPC at the LNGS to study proton decay as well as neutrino oscillations. The detector provides detailed images of ionizing events together with their energy measurement and particle identification. These capabilities allow for the exclusive measurement of the proton decay events and a highly sensitive neutrino oscillations experiment.
