The India-based Neutrino Observatory: Status and Physics Prospects

The India-based Neutrino Observatory Status and
Physics Prospects Professor Amitava Raychaudhuri
Director of the Harish-Chandra Research
Institute
Abstract The India-based Neutrino Observatory
(INO) project is in an advanced stage of RD. In
the first phase, a Magnetized Iron Calorimeter
(ICAL) detector will be used to study atmospheric
neutrinos. It is also being planned to eventually
exploit it as an end detector for a long baseline
experiment. After a brief description of INO and
ICAL, including a status report, the physics
issues which can be explored by ICAL will be
discussed.
