STUDY OF NEUTRINO INTERACTIONS WITH A FINE GRAINED CALORIMETER

Abstract

THE WORK PRESENTED IN THIS THESIS IS BASED ON THE EXPERIMENT PS191 AT CERN. THEMAIN AIM OF THE EXPERIMENT WAS TO SEARCH FOR HEAVY NEUTRINO DECAYS. IN THIS WORK I PRESENT THE BASIC POINTS OF THE "HEAVY NEUTRINO" PHYSICS AND OUR RESULTS FROM THE SEARCH FOR NEUTRINO DECAYS. THE MAIN FEATURES OF THE NEUTRINO-NUCLEON INTERACTIONS ARE PRESENTED AND THEN WE DESCRIBE THE NEUTRO BEAM, THE DETECTOR AND THE DATA ACQUISITION. THE ANALYSIS OF THE NEUTRINO-NUCLEON INTERACTIONS IN THE COLORIMETER FOLLOWS WITH EMPHASIS IN REACTIONS WITH TWO TRACKS IN THE FINAL STATE. WE OBSERVED AN EXCESS OF EVENTS WITH ASSOCIATED ELECTROMAGNETIC SHOWERS AND WE TRIED TO INTERPRET THEM IN TERMS OF NEUTRINO OSCILLATIONS.
