A detector for neutral-current interactions of high-energy neutrinod

Abstract The construction and performance of a large detector, designed principally to investigate neutral-current interactions of high-energy neutrinos, are described. The detector consists of an ionization calorimeter as a target to determine the energy and the direction of the shower produced by the neutrino scattering, and of a magnetic muon spectrometer. The calorimeter has also been used as a muon polarimeter.
