Abstract

The ICARUS Detector at the LGNS will carry out a sensitive search for a sin sup 2(2 theta sub 13). We describe a small version for the LANNDD proton decay detector (70kT Liquid Argon) to measure nu sub mu -> nu sub e in a low energy or off-axis neutrino beam. We find an optimal detector size is 5 kT and at a distance of about 700 km from a high-energy neutrino source. This detector uses the ICARUS method.
