Title:     A TPC for the T2K Near Detector

Abstract: The T2K experiment is an upcoming long-baseline neutrino experiment being designed for precision neutrino oscillation measurements. The experiment will use the 50GeV proton accelerator in Tokai, Japan to create a high intensity muon neutrino beam which will be aimed at Super-Kamiokande 295km from Tokai. The beam properties near the proton target will be measured by a near detector 280m downstream. The detector includes 3 box-shaped time projection chambers primarily for muon tracking utilizing either Gas Electron Multipliers (GEM) or microMegas for gas amplification. This presentation will introduce the T2K near detector and focus on selected design aspects of the time projection chamber. 


Please bring your own lunch.
