课文原文
Introduction of Environmental Engineering and ScienceA variety of metrics suggest that the scope and importance of environmental engineering and science continue to grow. As developing nations industrialize, pollutant concentrations and the numbers of exposed individuals increase; as new chemicals are added to our environment we discover more complex and troubling impacts; as we more carefully monitor ecosystems, we become more alarmed at the threats our activities have on the very fabric of life on Earth. Emissions of greenhouse gases are changing our climate and acidifying our oceans, endocrine disrupting compounds are appearing in waters throughout the world, high levels of mercury, PCBs, and other toxics are threatening marine mammals, fish, and other organisms.Progress has been made on many environmental fronts, including continued improvement in the quality of much of the surface water in the United States, more sophisticated techniques and instrumentation for monitoring the state of our environment, and mandated implementation of preventative technologies such as liners in municipal landfills, double-walled underground storage tanks for liquid fuels, and improved exhaust emission controls on automobiles. There is evidence that the protective ozone in the stratosphere is starting to recover and the concentration of chlorine in the stratosphere is dropping. Lead and chlorofluorocabon emission have been drastically reduced and, in a 2007 Supreme Court decision, carbon dioxide was finally recognized as a pollutant that can be regulated under the Clean Air Act, which will have enormous implications on controlling greenhouse gas emissions. It can also be reasonably argued that we have gotten better at allocating our environmental-improvement dollars. Monitored natural attenuation of subsurface contamination can potentially save millions of dollars in clean-up costs with little likelihood of increase human or ecological risk. Redevelopment and use of modestly contaminated industrial and commercial sites under brownfields initiatives have helped slow urban sprawl and encouraged revitalization of abandoned land. Increasingly stringent energy-efficiency standards for appliances and buildings are helping to reduce emissions from power plants at far lower cost than efforts to control stack emissions.The breadth and complexity of the environmental problems we face and the scientific, economic and social impediments to their solution emphasize how important it is that environmental scientists and engineers gain an appreciation for the processes and functioning of all environmental compartments—air, soil, water, and energy — and intentionally accout for the long-term consequences and sustainability of the actions they propose, whether they be preventative or remedial. One such example is the arsenic crisis in many developing countries. Millions of wells were dug in India, Bangladesh, Southeast Asia, Chile, Argentina in an attempt to reduce exposure to pathogens found in surface water sources of drinking water. However, because the subsurface geochemistry of these regions was not adequately evaluated beforehand, an epidemic of arsenic poisoning now affects millions of people who are drinking water from wells that are contaminated by naturally occurring arsenic. The story of MTBE provides another example of unintended consequences. MIBE was first added to gasoline in the early 1980s to replace the octane enhancer tetraethyllead and to help clean the air by reducing exhaust emissions. Inadvertent leakage from cars and storage tanks, however, has led to MTBE contamination of groundwater, including drinking water sources, in many parts of the United States. Such examples reinforce the need for environmental engineers, scientists, and an informed public, to broaden their range of expertise to include the full range of environmental threats that our industrialized society creates.Finding Solutions for Tough Environmental ProblemsThis January, environmental engineers and scientists gathered in Monterey, Calif., to participate in an Environmental Engineering Frontiers Workshop sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors. Historically, the discipline has been focused on engineered process technologies built around a single medium, such as water or wastewater. The workshop participants agreed that these processes remain a foundation for future progress, but they also identified important research frontiers that emphasize a much broader scope of environmental concerns (see Table 1).Table 1 Research FrontiersCategory SubcategoriesSustainable environment ●Safe, adequate and sustainable supply of water (reuse and conservation)●Terrestrial and coastal resources●Ecosystem stress●Assessment of chronic exposure to trace contaminants●Reduction of toxic materials used in industrial processes and consumer productsComplex systems ●Integration of components of complex, biogeochemical systems●Atmospheric systems●Ecosystem stability and diversity●Microbial ecologyAnalytical molecular tools ●Molecular biological tools●Chemical toolsProcess technologies ●Reactive separation systems●Targeted chemical destruction●Engineering subsurface systems●Membrane technologies●Process technologies for the nonindustrialized worldThe research frontiers identified by the workshop participants were categorized into four general areas: sustainable environment, complex systems, analytical molecular tools, process technologies. Each category of frontier research was further subdivided.A pervasive theme of the workshop was the inherent complexity of environmental systems. The workshop participants noted that although scientific investigation can unravel aspects of key issues related to pollution of air, water, and land, a more comprehensive, integrated view of these systems is needed to provide solutions to difficult environmental problems. Environmental engineers must seek to understand the nature and functioning of large and complex systems in order to protect whole ecosystems, produce new and sustainable technologies, prevent the outbreak of diseases across global scales, and protect the environment from damage resulting from the production of new chemicals. Environmental engineers must take a leading role in directing projects, as well as in investigating the different aspects of environmental systems.As its central mission, environmental engineering is concerned with the analysis of environmental systems and the design of plans, criteria, and technological systems for the solution of environmental problems.The intellectual challenge for environmental engineers and scientists is the identification of criticalenvironmental problems and the acquisition of scientific knowledge crucial to achieving effective solutions.Perhaps the greatest challenges will be in preventing, and not just removing, pollution and in conserving existing resources. Environmental engineers must do a better job of helping society anticipate adverse environmental impacts arising from the production of new chemicals before they become problems. A serious failure to anticipate impacts occurred when MTBE was added to gasoline to reduce air pollution without carefully considering the potential effects of leaks from tanks on groundwater quality. Although air quality improved in urban areas, the threat of groundwater contamination increased significantly. Chlorofluorocarbon (CFCs) were eliminated in favor of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) to reduce ozone destruction in the stratosphere, but this was done without sufficient knowledge of the potential environmental impact of refractory trifluoroacetic acid that can form in the atmosphere and eventually rain down over the Earth.The workshop participants advised that, once harmful chemicals are in the environment, environmental engineers must play a key role in determining the ability of natural systems to adapt to the presence of these chemicals. In pursuit of necessary information, engineers have gone to the frontiers of research, where, at the limit of current understanding, there are opportunities to advance knowledge in new and positive directions.New biological and chemical tools can be used for the analysis of complex environmental systems. The workshop attendees recommended that to take maximum advantage of these tools, environmental engineers would have to increase their interactions with a wide range of chemists and biologists. Moreover, they said, to ensure that scientific breakthroughs result in practical advances in pollution prevention and treatment, engineers must cooperate more fully with applied and social scientists as well as with policy makers in government and industry. It was concluded that by working together, these groups could bring scientific and technological advances into widespread use for meeting the challenges of environmental sustainability.A Synthesis of IssuesWorkshop participants considered a range of questions to identify and frame the frontier chanllenges that environmental engineers will be called on to address. In the global arena of the 21st century, what are the most important environmental problems for which there are no known or easy solutions? Are these problems solvable with existing knowledge and technologies? If not, what new tools can be used to solve these problems? What science and technology breakthroughs provide the most promising opportunities to make a quantum leap in society’s ability to understand and solve environmental problems?Important characteristics of chemicals that are released to the environment include their volatility, adsorption and partitioning to minerals and organic matter, and their overall persistence.●Are these chemicals degraded biotically or abiotically?●Are they subject to intrinsic biodegradability?●Can a variety of microorganisms degrade a chemical, or is its degradation limited to a particular speciesor redox environment?●Can the exchange of genetic information between microbial species make the ability to degrade theseNew chemicals more wide spread among members of the microbial community?Little is known about the combined effect of these processes, but they are fundamental to the understanding of chemical fate and effects in the environment, and they affect decisions about when engineered solutions must be applied.Environmental problems, such as ozone depletion caused by CFCs and the prospect of global warming associated with release of CO2and other greenhouse gases, are global issues that transcend political boundaries. Many environmental challenges are not limited to industrialized nations. For most of the world, the greatest need is for affordable, practical technologies —sanitation, drinking water supply, andwastewater collection and treatment —that can reduce the spread of infectious diseases. Moreover, world commerce and the intensified circulation of people bring an increased potential for the dissemination of infectious diseases throughout the developing world and into the developed world, technology, resources, and knowledge, now mainly possessed in the developed world, must be used to address environmental problems wherever they arise.Unit 3Climate Change and the Greenhouse EffectClimate ChangeHuman activities are releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, carbon dioxide is produced when fossil fuels used to generate energy and when forests are cut down and burned. Methane and nitrous oxide are emitted from agricultural activities, changes in land use, and other sources. Artificial chemicals called halocarbons (CFCs, HFCs, PFCs) and other long-lived agses such as sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) are release by industrial processed. Ozone in the lower atmosphere is generated indirectly by automobile exhaust fumes and other sources.Rising levels of greenhouse gases are already changing the climate. By absorbing infrared radiation, these gases control the way natural energy flows through the climate system. In response to humanity’s emissions, the climate has started to adjust to a “thicker blanket” of greenhouse gases in order to maintain the balance between energy arriving from the sun and energy escaping back into space. Observations show that global temperatures have risen by about 0.6℃over the 20th century. There is new and stronger evidence that most of the observed warming over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities.Climate models predict that the global temperature will rise by about 1.4 ~ 5.8℃by the year 2100. This change would be much larger than any climate change experienced over at least the last 10,000 years. The projection is based on a wide range of assumptions about the main forces driving future emissions (such as population growth and technological change) but does not reflect any efforts to control emissions due to concerns about climate change. There are many uncertainties about the scale and impacts of climate change, particularly at the regional level. Because of the delaying effect of the oceans, surface temperatures do not respond immediately to greenhouse gas emissions, so climate change will continue for hundreds of years after atmospheric concentrations have stabilized.Climate change is likely to have a significant impact on the global environment. In general, the faster the climate changes, the greater will be the risk of damage. The mean sea level is expected to rise 9-88 cm by the year 2100, causing flooding of low-lying areas and other damage. Other effects could include an increase in global precipitation and changes in the severity or frequency of extreme events. Climatic zones could shift poleward and vertically, disrupting forests, deserts, rangelands, and other unmanaged ecosystems. As a result, many will decline or fragment, and individual species could become extinct.Human society will face new risks and pressures. Food security is unlikely to be threatened at the global level, but some regions are likely to experience food shortages and hunger. Water resources will be affected as precipitation and evaporation patterns change around the world. Physical infrastructure will be damaged, particularly by sea-level rise and by extreme weather events. Economic activities, human settlements, and human health will experience many direct and indirect effects.The poor and disadvantaged are the most vulnerable to the negative consequences of climate change.People and ecosystems will need to adapt to future climatic regimes. Past and current emissions have already committed the earth to some degree of climate change in the 21st century. Adapting to these effects will require a good understanding of socio-economic and natural systems, their sensitivity to climate change, and their inherent ability to adapt. Fortunately, many strategies are available for adapting to the expected effects of climate change.Stabilizing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases will demand a major effort.Withoutemissions-control policies motivated by concerns about climate change, atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide are expected to rise from today’s 367 parts per million to 490-1,260 by the year 2100. This would represent a 75%-350% increase since the year 1750. Stabilizing concentrations at, for example, 450 ppm would require world-wide emissions to fall below 1990 levels within the next few decades. Given an expanding global economy and growing populations, this would require dramatic improvements in energy efficiency and fundamental changes in other economic sectors.The greenhouse effectThe earth’s climate is driven by a continuous flow of energy from the sun. This energy arrives mainly in the form of visible light. About 30% is immediately scattered back into space, but most of the remaining 70% passes down through the atmosphere to warm the earth’s surface.The earth must send this energy back out into space in the form of infrared radiation. Being much cooler than the sun, the earth does not emit energy as visible light. Instead, it emits infrared, or thermal radiation. This is the heat thrown off by an electric fire or grill before the bars begin to glow red.“Greenhouse gases” in the atmosphere block infrared radiation from escaping directly from the surface to space. Infrared radiation cannot pass straight through the air like visible light. Instead, most departing energy is carried away from the surface by air currents, eventually escaping to space from altitudes above the thickest layers of the greenhouse gas blanket.The main greenhouse gases are water vapour, carbon dioxide, ozone, methane, nitrous oxide, and halocarbons and other industrial gases. Apart from the industrial gases, all of these gases occur naturally. Together, they make up less than 1% of the atmosphere. This is enough to produce a “natural greenhouse effect” that keeps the planet some 30℃warmer than it would otherwise be essential for life as we know it.Levels of all key greenhouse gases (with the possible exception of water vapour) are rising as a derect result of human activity. Emissions of carbon dioxide (mainly from burning coal, oil, and natural gas), methane and nitrous oxide (due mainly to agriculture and changes in land use), ozone (generated by automobile exhaust fumes and other sources) and long-lived industrial gases such as CFCs, HFCs, and PFCs are changing how the atmosphere absorbs energy. Water vapour levels may also be rising because of a “positive feedback”. This is all happening at an unprecedented speed. The result is known as the “enhanced greenhouse effect”.The climate system must adjust to rising greenhouse gas levels to keep the global energy budget in balance. In the long term, the earth must get rid of energy at the same rate at which it receives energy from the sun. Since a thicker blanket of greenhouse gases helps to reduce energy loss to space, the climate must change somehow to restore the balance between incoming and outgoing energy.This adjustment will include a “global warming” of the earth’s surface and lower atmosphere, but this is only part of the story. Warming up is the simplest way for the climate to get rid of the extra energy. But even a small rise in temperature will be accompanied by many other changes: in cloud cover and wind patterns, for example. Some of these changes may act to enhance the warming (positive feedbacks), others to counteract it (negative feedbacks).Meanwhile, man-made aerosols have an overall cooling effect. Sulphur emissions from coal, and oil fired power stations and the burning of organic material produce microscopic particles that can reflect sunlight back out into space and also affect clouds. The resultant cooling partly counteracts greenhouse warming. These aerosols, however, remain in the atmosphere for a relatively short time compared to the long-lived greenhouse gases, so their cooling effect is localized. They also cause acid rain and poor air quality, problems that need to be addressed. This means we should not rely indefinitely on the cooling effect of aerosols.。

While these aspirations are indeed noble, the path towards realizing them can seem arduous and even insurmountable at times. However, it is during these moments of self-doubt and trepidation that we must remind ourselves of a fundamental truth: even the mightiest of dreams and most colossal of accomplishments have their roots in the most unassuming of beginnings.Consider, for instance, the awe-inspiring narrative of Sir Isaac Newton, the titan of physics whose groundbreaking theories and insights into the realms of motion, gravity, and optics forever transformed our understanding of the universe. It is a tale that has become the stuff of legend, with Newton's famous anecdote of the falling apple serving as a symbolic representation of his genius and the profundity of his discoveries. Yet, what is often overlooked is the humble origin of this monumental moment – a simple, unremarkable apple falling from a tree, an occurrence so commonplace that it had transpired countless times before, unnoticed and unappreciated.It was Newton's exceptional perspicacity and unwavering curiosity that allowed him to discern the profound significance of this seemingly trivial event, ultimately paving the way for hisrevolutionary work on the laws of motion and universal gravitation. This powerful lesson underscores the notion that the most extraordinary breakthroughs can stem from the most ordinary of circumstances, provided that one possesses the vision and tenacity to recognize and capitalize on such opportunities.Similarly, the advent of the World Wide Web, that vast digital tapestry that has irrevocably transformed the way we communicate, access information, and conduct business, can be traced back to a modest proposal penned by a young computer scientist named Tim Berners-Lee. In 1989, while working at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, Berners-Lee envisioned a system that would allow researchers to share and access information more efficiently by linking documents through hypertext. Little did he know that this unassuming concept would blossom into the internet as we know it today, a revolutionary technology that has reshaped virtually every aspect of modern life.These examples serve as powerful reminders that even the most monumental achievements often have their genesis in the simplest of ideas or observations. It is our ability to recognize the potential inherent in these humble beginnings and to cultivatethem with unwavering dedication and perseverance that ultimately determines our capacity to transform our dreams into tangible realities.As students, we must embrace this ethos wholeheartedly, for it is a mindset that will prove invaluable throughout our academic journeys and beyond. Whether we aspire to become trailblazing researchers, innovative entrepreneurs, or influential leaders in our respective fields, the path towards realizing these ambitions will invariably be paved with countless small steps, seemingly inconsequential decisions, and seemingly insignificant moments of insight.It is during these seemingly unremarkable junctures that we must remain vigilant and receptive, for it is often within the most mundane of circumstances that the seeds of greatness lie dormant, waiting to be nurtured and cultivated by those with the vision and determination to recognize their potential. Just as a single acorn holds the blueprint for a mighty oak, so too can a fleeting thought or a seemingly trivial observation serve as the catalyst for a groundbreaking discovery or a paradigm-shifting innovation.Embracing this philosophy, however, requires a profound shift in our perspective and approach. It demands that we shedour preconceptions of what constitutes a "significant" or "worthy" idea, and instead, cultivate a heightened sense of curiosity and an openness to exploring the seemingly insignificant. It necessitates that we approach each day, each class, and each interaction with a sense of wonder and a willingness to question the familiar, to challenge the conventional, and to seek out the extraordinary within the ordinary.Moreover, it requires us to develop the resilience and perseverance to weather the inevitable setbacks and failures that will inevitably punctuate our journeys. For every Newton or Berners-Lee, there are countless individuals whose brilliant ideas or groundbreaking discoveries were initially met with skepticism, ridicule, or outright rejection. Yet, it was their unwavering belief in the potential of their humble beginnings and their steadfast commitment to nurturing and refining their ideas that ultimately allowed them to transcend these obstacles and leave an indelible mark on the world.As we progress through our academic careers and beyond, we must strive to emulate this tenacity and unwavering dedication. We must embrace the understanding that every great accomplishment, every revolutionary idea, and everyenduring legacy has its roots in the most unassuming of beginnings. It is our willingness to recognize and cultivate these humble seeds, to tend to them with patience and perseverance, that will ultimately determine our ability to transform our dreams into reality.For it is only when we shed our preconceptions and embrace the extraordinary potential that lies within the ordinary that we can truly unlock the full extent of our capabilities. It is then, and only then, that we can embark on a journey that transcends the boundaries of our imaginations and allows us to etch our names into the annals of history alongside those whose monumental achievements were born from the most humble of origins.篇2Great Dreams Have Humble BeginningsIn our society, we are often taught to dream big and aim high. From a young age, we are encouraged to set lofty goals and have grandiose visions for our future. However, what is often overlooked is that even the most monumental achievements and groundbreaking ideas start from humble beginnings. The path to realizing our grand dreams is paved with small steps, modest starts, and a willingness to embrace the seemingly insignificant.When we look at the lives of celebrated individuals who have left an indelible mark on our world, we find that their journeys began in the most unassuming of ways. Take, for instance, the story of J.K. Rowling, the author of the beloved Harry Potter series. Before becoming a literary phenomenon, Rowling was a struggling single mother who wrote her first novel in cafes while her daughter napped. It was a simple act of putting pen to paper, fueled by her passion for storytelling and her determination to create something meaningful.Similarly, Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft and one of the wealthiest individuals in the world, started his journey in a garage. It was there that he and his friend Paul Allen began tinkering with computer codes, driven by their curiosity and fascination with technology. Little did they know that their humble beginnings would lay the foundation for a global empire that would revolutionize the way we live and work.These examples serve as a reminder that greatness does not emerge from a vacuum. It is born from the courage to take that first, seemingly insignificant step, and the perseverance to keep moving forward, one small stride at a time.In our pursuit of grand dreams, we often overlook the power of small beginnings. We tend to fixate on the end goal, the grandvision, and lose sight of the importance of laying a solid foundation. However, it is precisely these humble beginnings that hold the key to our success. Every great achievement, every groundbreaking invention, and every enduring legacy began with a simple idea, a modest effort, or a tiny spark of inspiration.By embracing the humble beginnings, we cultivate a mindset of patience, resilience, and appreciation for the journey itself. We learn to celebrate the small victories, the incremental progress, and the lessons that come from stumbling and getting back up. It is in these moments of humble beginnings that we develop the strength, resilience, and determination to persevere through the challenges that inevitably arise on the path to realizing our dreams.Moreover, humble beginnings teach us the value of gratitude and humility. When we recognize the modest origins of our endeavors, we are reminded of the countless individuals, circumstances, and opportunities that have contributed to our progress. We become more appreciative of the support systems around us, the mentors who have guided us, and the resources that have been made available to us.As students, we are at a pivotal point in our lives, where our dreams and aspirations are taking shape. It is easy to becomeoverwhelmed by the magnitude of our ambitions and the seemingly insurmountable obstacles that stand in our way. However, it is crucial to remember that every great achievement, every groundbreaking discovery, and every lasting legacy had its roots in humble beginnings.Whether it is mastering a new subject, developing a skill, or pursuing a personal passion, embrace the small steps and celebrate the modest starts. Recognize that greatness does not happen overnight; it is the culmination of countless small efforts, perseverance, and a willingness to learn from setbacks and failures.In the words of the renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, "The universe is under no obligation to make sense to you." Embracing the humble beginnings allows us to approach our dreams with an open mind, a willingness to learn, and a readiness to adapt and evolve as we navigate the journey towards our goals.As we embark on our individual paths, let us remember that great dreams have humble beginnings. Let us embrace the small steps, celebrate the modest starts, and cultivate the resilience and determination to turn our dreams into reality, one stride at a time. For it is in these humble beginnings that the seeds ofgreatness are sown, and the foundations for lasting legacies are laid.篇3Grand Ambitions Have Humble BeginningsAs a high school student, I often find myself daydreaming about ambitious goals - becoming a world-renowned scientist who develops a cure for cancer, an inspiring teacher who shapes young minds, or an influential leader who makes the world a better place. These grand ambitions fuel my motivation and give me a sense of purpose. However, I've come to realize that even the most extraordinary achievements have modest beginnings. Every great journey starts with a single step, and every remarkable feat is built upon a foundation of small, consistent efforts.Looking back at the lives of remarkable individuals who have left an indelible mark on history, it's striking to see how their stories often began with humble circumstances and seemingly insignificant events. Take, for instance, the story of J.K. Rowling, the author of the beloved Harry Potter series. Before becoming a literary phenomenon, she was a struggling single mother living on welfare, writing her first novel in a cafe while her daughternapped beside her. Yet, it was this modest beginning that planted the seed for one of the most successful book franchises of all time, captivating millions of readers worldwide.Or consider the journey of Malala Yousafzai, the youngest Nobel Prize laureate and an ardent advocate for girls' education. Her crusade for educational rights began with simple acts of defiance, like speaking out against the Taliban's oppressive policies in her native Pakistan. From these humble beginnings, her voice grew louder and more influential, inspiring a global movement that has empowered countless young women to pursue their dreams of education.These examples illustrate a profound truth: grand ambitions are not born overnight; they are cultivated through a process of perseverance, dedication, and a willingness to embrace the seemingly insignificant steps that pave the way for greatness.In my own life, I've experienced the power of starting small. My passion for environmental conservation began with a simple school project on recycling. As I delved deeper into the subject, I became increasingly aware of the urgent need to address climate change and protect our planet's fragile ecosystems. What started as a modest assignment ignited a fire within me, propelling meto join environmental clubs, organize community clean-ups, and even lobby local policymakers for sustainable initiatives.Similarly, my dream of becoming a writer took root during a creative writing class in middle school. Initially, my stories were amateurish and riddled with flaws, but with each revision and critique, I honed my skills and developed a deeper appreciation for the craft. Now, as I prepare to apply to university, I find myself drawn to the prospect of pursuing a degree in literature or journalism, fueled by those early, humble beginnings.These personal experiences have taught me a valuable lesson: greatness is not bestowed upon us; it is earned through a continuous cycle of small, deliberate steps. Every grand ambition, whether it's finding a cure for a devastating disease, pioneering groundbreaking technology, or creating a masterpiece of art, begins with a seed of curiosity, a spark of passion, or a simple act of courage.Moreover, embracing humble beginnings fosters a growth mindset – the belief that our abilities and talents can be developed through dedicated effort and a willingness to learn from mistakes. When we acknowledge that even the most accomplished individuals started from modest roots, we gain theconfidence to persist through setbacks and the humility to continuously improve.As I look towards the future, I am inspired by the countless examples of individuals who have transformed their modest beginnings into extraordinary legacies. Whether it's the scientist who dedicated countless hours to meticulous research, the artist who painstakingly honed their craft, or the activist who tirelessly advocated for change, their stories remind me that grand ambitions are not solely the domain of the privileged or the prodigiously talented. Instead, they are the culmination of consistent effort, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to one's dreams, no matter how small the first steps may seem.In the face of grand ambitions, it can be easy to become overwhelmed or discouraged by the enormity of the task at hand. However, by embracing the power of humble beginnings, we can break down daunting goals into manageable steps, celebrating each incremental achievement along the way. Every small victory – be it mastering a new skill, overcoming a personal obstacle, or making a positive impact in our community – lays the foundation for greater accomplishments and fuels our determination to reach even higher.As I embark on my own journey towards realizing my ambitions, I carry with me the wisdom gleaned from those who have walked before me. I understand that greatness is not a destination, but a continuous pursuit fueled by a willingness to start small, learn from mistakes, and persevere through challenges. With this mindset, I am confident that even the most modest beginnings can pave the way for extraordinary achievements, leaving an indelible mark on the world and inspiring others to embrace their own grand ambitions.。

近代物理研究所夸克物质研究中心介绍
2018·15·2-1Quark Matter Research Center at IMP ∗Chen Xurong,Fang Dongliang,Qiu Hao and XuNuFig.1(color online)The organization of the newlyproposed Quark Matter Research Center at IMP.As shown in Fig.1,the newly proposed Quark Mat-ter Research Center (QMRC)is made of three researchdivisions focusing on Quark Matter Phase Structure,Hadron Structure and the Neutrino Nature.In addi-tion,a detector research group,focusing on solid-statepixel detector,which supports all experimental activi-ties of the above three research groups.In this report,we will describe the physics of these groups in QMRCat IMP.1Quark matter phase structure Initially when Lee and Wick first proposed studying the high-energy nuclear collisions their goal was to create a new form of nu-clear matter called the Quark-Gluon Plasma(QGP)[1].It turns out that the net-baryondensity as well as the temperature strongly depend on the colliding energy,therefore high-energy collisions are also very effective for studying the QCD phase diagram [2].In ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions,where the net-baryon density is close to zero,the strongly coupled QGP has been observed [3]at both RHIC and LHC.The properties of the medium created in such collisions show a strong opacity to colored objects and small ratio of shear viscosity over entropy density [4].In the region with vanishing net-baryon density,a smooth-crossover is expected [5,6].At the high net-baryon region,on the other hand,model calculations have suggested the 1st −order phase boundary between QGP and hadronic phase.Hence to be thermodynamically consistent,there must be a critical point (CP)between the smooth-crossover and the 1st −order phase boundary line.The CP is a mile stone,the Holy Grail,for high-energy nuclear collisions.Nowadays many experimental programs have been set-up in order to study the QCD phase structure and search for the possible critical point.The first RHIC beam energy scan (RHIC BESI)program (USA)started almost ten years ago and the 2nd phase is under way.Both CBM experiment at FAIR (Germany)and MPD experiment at NICA (Russia)will be ready for action in 2025.The CEE experiment at HIRFL-CSR (China)[7]is under construction and will be in operation in 2022.While collaborating with international collages from STAR,CBM,NICA experiments,the main mission of the Nuclear Matter Phase Structure at QMRC is to complete the construction of CEE and start the experiment at CSR as soon as possible.It will be part of the world class fleet competing for the discovery of the QCD critical point.2Nucleon structureMost of the visible matter exists in form of hadrons.They are the building blocks for all nuclei in the universe.However,the basic properties of hadrons,proton spin,mass and radii,for example,are not known.The main task of the Nucleon Structure Group are two folds:(i)Establish the science cases for future polarized Electron-Ion Collider in China (EicC )and complete the Whitepaper including physics cases and detector conceptual design by the end of 2019.In the mean time,develop flagship measurements for the EicC.Unlike the high energy EIC proposed in US [8–11]and Europe [12],the EicC will be an e-p/e-A collider with center-of-mass energy around 10∼20GeV for electron and proton beams.Both electron and proton (light nucleus)beams will be polarized with the projected luminosity of (2∼4)×1033/cm 2·s.High-precision measurements of the distribution functions of sea-and valence-quarks at EicC will uncover the internal structure of nucleons and ultimately solve the puzzles about nucleon properties.The very first design of the EicC detector is discussed by Liang [13]in this Annual Report;(ii)Participate in few world-class ongoing electron scattering experiments at the JLab including search for penta-quark [14]and the DVCS experiment [15].∗Foundation item:Key Research Program of Chinese Academy of Sciences (Y832020YRC,XDBP09)·16·2018 3Neutrino NatureNeutrinoless double-beta decay(0νββ)experiment is a powerful tool for determining the nature of neutrino: Majorana or Dirac fermion.This is one of the few most foundermental physics questions beyond the successful Standard Model.The0νββdecay has been pursed ever since it is suggested in1930s.The limit on the effective Majorana mass has been pushed down to∼100meV in recent years,corresponding to a decay half-time of∼1026 a.The primary goal of the Neutrino Nature group at QMRC is to establish a next generation high sensitivity experiment in order to search for the0νββand to identify the dominant decay mechanism.We will propose an experiment:No neutrino Double-beta Experiment(NνDEx)to be located in the underground laboratory CJPL in Jingping,China.The NνDEx project aims to take advantage of the recent development of the Topmetal sensors and the gainless TPC to have a high energy resolution,together with the choice of large Q-value isotope82Se with Q=2.995MeV to achieve high sensitivity.The projected limit on the effective Majorana mass for one tonne,five-year data is about5∼14MeV,corresponding to a half-time of1028a.The low cosmic background environment in CPJL makes it the ideal place for this experiment.In addition,the group will work on high precision calculations of various observables such as decay half-lives and electron spectra,etc.through a collaborative effort from the nuclear theorists and particle physicists.The ultimate goal is tofind the new physics behind the decay and answer the question on the origin of neutrino mass.

concerning the neutrino oscillation physics in Europe.Recently a joint CERN–LNGS scientific committee has reviewed several proposals both for the study of atmospheric neutrinos and for long (LBL)and short baseline (SBL)neutrino oscillation experiments.The committee has indicated the priority that the European high energy physics community should follows in the field of neutrino physics,namely a new massive,atmospheric neutrino detector and a ντappearance campaign exploiting the new CERN–LNGS Neutrino Facility (NGS),freshly approved by CERN and INFN.The sensitivity and the discovery potential of the whole experimental program in the Super–Kamiokande allowed region are discussed.1.INTRODUCTIONThe indication for the existence of neutrino oscillation has originally appeared in the at-mospheric neutrino data of Kamiokande [1]&IMB [2]where the measurement of the ratio R µ/e of µ–like and e –like events was lower than the Monte Carlo expectation.The recent data of Super–Kamiokande (SK)[3]have strengthened the evidence for the existence of an anomaly in the flavour ratio of atmospheric neutrinos.Moreover the high statistics of SK show distortions of the angular distributions of the sub–GeV and the multi–GeV µ–like events that suggest the νµoscillation hypothesis,while the angular distribution of the e –like events is consistent with the no–oscillation hypothesis.This evidence is also supported by the SOUDAN2[4]data and by the SK &MACRO [5]data on up-going muons.The absence of an oscillation signal in the data of the CHOOZ [6]experiment essentially rules out the νe ↔νx oscillations in the interesting region of parameter space and favours the interpreta-tion of the SK result in terms of νµ↔ντos-cillation with ∆m 2in the range 10−2−10−3eV 2and sin 2(2Θ)in the range 0.8−1.0.More exotic interpretations,like νµ↔νsterile ,are at presentnot fully excluded.A possible method to confirm these results is the development of long–baseline accelerator neu-trino beams.The accelerator beams can have higher intensity and higher average energy than the atmospheric flux,and if νµ↔ντoscillations are indeed the cause of the atmospheric neutrino anomaly,they can produce a measurable rate of τleptons for most of the values of the oscillation parameters that are a solution to the atmospheric data.On the other hand measurements of atmo-spheric neutrinos with large statistics and/or bet-ter experimental resolutions,can also provide convincing evidence for oscillations,thanks to unambiguous detectable effects on the energy,zenith angle and L/E distributions of the events.The study of these effects can provide a pre-cise determination of the oscillations parame-ters.The range of L/E available for atmo-spheric neutrinos (10−104Km/GeV )is much larger than that of long–baseline accelerator ex-periments (≃100Km/GeV )and the sensitivity extends to lower values of ∆m 2.All these considerations call for a comprehen-sive physics programme,whose main goals are:–the search for a direct neutrino oscillation signal in the full range indicated by the SK results;–the precise test of theνµ↔ντoscillation hy-pothesis;–the measurement of the relevant oscillation pa-rameters:at least one squared mass difference,∆m2,and one mixing angle,sin2(2Θ).The above arguments stimulated a joint CERN–INFN project for a beam towards the Gran Sasso National Laboratory(LNGS),732km away.At the same time several LBL and SBL experiments,based on very different techniques, as well as atmospheric neutrino experiments have been proposed and recently reviewed by a joint CERN–LNGS scientific committee.In the following sections we will review the status of the future CERN–LNGS neutrino pro-gramme(section2.)and of the new CERN Neu-trino Beam to Gran Sasso(section3.).In section 4.we will describe the proposed LBL experiments and discuss their sensitivity and significance in the SK allowed region of the oscillation param-eter space.Finally in section5.we will outline the characteristics and the sensitivity of a pos-sible massive detector for atmospheric neutrino physics.2.THE FUTURE CERN–LNGS NEU-TRINO PROGRAMMEHere we faithfully report the out-come of the first meeting of the recently constituted joint CERN–LNGS scientific committee.The meeting was held at CERN on November3-4,1998with the aim of reviewing the overall CERN–LNGS neutrino experimental programme and evaluat-ing its potentiality also in view of the exsistence of other similar projects[7,8].The committee believes that a combined ex-perimental effort can accomplish the above pro-gramme.Elements of this programme are:i)A large mass(larger then20kt)atmospheric neutrino experiment with high resolution in an-gle and neutrino energy,so that an explicit os-cillation pattern can be put in evidence.Such a detector can be sensitive to oscillations for ∆m2=2×10−4−5×10−3eV2,covering all the relevant region also in view of the K2K experi-ment[7],and can measure both the mass differ-ence and at least one of the mixing angles.ii)A Long Base Line(LBL)beam from CERN to Gran Sasso as laid out in documents CERN 98–02and CERN–SPSC98–35.The feasibility of constructing a neutrino beam towards Gran Sasso has been demonstrated,being well-suited for ex-periments and with a built-inflexibility allowing the beam design to evolve with thefield of neu-trino oscillation physics.iii)Aντappearance LBL experiment,uniquely capable of precisely discriminating theνµ↔ντoscillation hypothesis in the range above1−2×10−3eV2with underground detectors.Ways of extending this mass range may exist,possibly in successive steps,due to extremely low experimen-tal background and the possibility of using a de-tector on the surface.The search forνe appear-ance can nicely be coupled withντappearance experiments.However,due to the small number of signal events expected,aντappearance experi-ment may not be effective in actually determining the oscillation parameters.iv)Aνµdisappearance LBL experiment,with the need for a near station,again sensitive down to1×10−3eV2in∆m2,provided the systematic effects can be kept under control to a sufficient level of accuracy.The complementarity between iii)and i)or iv) is manifest.The same is not true for i)and iv), with i)having a larger reach potential at low ∆m2.The possible integration of two or more elements stated above into one combined detec-tor deserves attention,to the extent that this can be shown to be compatible with the individual goals outlined.The committee also took note of the scientific interest expressed by:–A short baseline experiment to search forνµ↔ντoscillation beyond the sensitivity reach of CHORUS and NOMAD(SPSC98-29&M616).–A low energy neutrino beam derived from the PS to search forνµ↔νe oscillation in the range of parameters suggested by LSND(SPSC98-27 &M614).–A long-term experimental neutrino programme at CERN based on a future Neutrino Factory,of-fering highflux neutrino beams originating from a high intensity injector proton booster and/or muon storage ring of aµ+µ−collider(SPSC98-30&M617,SPSC98-31&M618).3.THE CERN NEUTRINO BEAM TOGRAN SASSOA substantial part of the CERN–LNGS neu-trino program will be based on a new CERN neu-trino beam line(NGS)pointing to Gran Sasso, 732Km away.The conceptual design of this fa-cility has been studied in detail by a Technical Committee,mandated by CERN and INFN,and it feasibility has been fully demonstrated[9]. The NGS neutrino beam is produced from the decay of mesons,mostlyπ’s and K’s.The mesons are created by the interaction of a400GeV pro-ton beam onto a graphite target,they are sign-selected and focused in the forward direction by two magnetic coaxial lenses,called horn and re-flector andfinally they are let to decay in an evac-uated tunnel pointing toward Gran Sasso.As clearly stated in the NGS report[9],the de-sign concentrated on the civil engineering,freez-ing some parameters but keepingflexibility in the actual choice of the beam optics.Mainly the pro-ton energy,the extraction from the SPS,the tar-get room design,the geometry of the decay tunnel and the beam absorber were choosen.The main characteristics of the neutrino beam-line are listed in Table1.3.1.Optimization of the beam forνµ↔ντappearance searchAs for the beam,the general strategy was to opt for a wide band neutrino beam based on the experience gathered at CERN with the design and the operation of the WANF.The beam opti-mization and the design of the details of the beam optics have been subject of further studies driven by the requests of the experiments.Following the indication of the CERN–LNGS committee,afirst optimization of the beam has been carried out with the goal of maximizing theντCC interac-tions at LNGS for appearance experiments[10]. In the limit of small oscillations,where the flavour transition propability is approximated as P(νµ↔νx)≃sin2(2Θ)×(1.27∆m2L/E)2,the ντevent rate a far location is given by the follow-ing formula:Nτ=K φνµ(E)×f(E)×ǫ(E)×dE/E(1)Table1Main parameter list of the NGS neutrino beam Horn&Reflector parabolicH&R length 6.65mH&R current120kA Min horn distance from target 1.8m Max refl.distance from target80m Near detector pit foreseen Distance from target1850mwhere:K=N a×M d×σ0×sin2(2Θ)×(1.27∆m2L)2, E is the neutrino energy,φνµis theνµflux at the detector distance L,σ0E is theνµCC interaction cross–section,f is the ratio betweenντandνµCC interaction cross–sections,ǫis theτdetection efficiency,N a is the Avogadro number and M d is the detector mass.The integral in equation1is the quantity to be maximized.Note that it does not depend on the oscillation parameters.Note also that appear-ance experiments are only sensitive to the product sin2(2Θ)×(∆m2)2.A full Monte Carlo simulation of the beam has been used,based on the FLUKA97[11]package, to evaluate neutrinofluxes and event rates.It turned out that the best optics configuration con-sists in a horn focusing30GeV mesons and a re-flector tuned to50GeV.The predictedνµevent rate and the¯νµandνe contaminations of the NGS beam at LNGS are listed in Table2for two modesTable2Totalνµ,¯νµandνe CC events rate per kt·year at LNGS(Nµ,N¯µand N e)in the cases of shared and dedicated mode of operation of the SPS.Theaverage energy(<Eνµ>)of theνµinteractionsis also shown.Nµ2280433230.2N¯µ51.397.5N e18.234.7∆m2(eV2)NτNτ<Eντ>shared dedicatedof operation of the SPS.In Table3we give theντevent rate for values of∆m2at full mixing within the range allowed by the SK atmospheric neutrino data.Options of lower beam energy have also been considered for disappearance experiments[12]. Further studies on the optimisation of the beam are currently being done.4.THE LBL EXPERIMENTSIn this section we give a brief description of the experiments proposed to study neutrino oscilla-tions at LNGS with the NGS neutrino beam.The sensitivity and the discovery potentials of each ex-periment have been calculated for an exposure of four years and for the neutrino rates presented in the previous section.4.1.ICARUSICARUS[13]is an approved experiment at LNGS,in preparation to search for proton decays in exclusive channels and to study atmospheric and solar neutrinos.Exposed at the NGS beam it will carry outνµ↔ντoscillation search in appearance mode.4.1.1.The detectorThe ICARUS detector is a liquid argon TPC, whose main characteristics are the following.–It is a homogeneous tracking device,capable of dE/dx measurement.The high dE/dx resolution allows both good momentum measurement and particle identification for soft particles.–Electromagnetic and hadronic showers are fully sampled.This allows to have a good energy resolution for both electromagnetic,σ(E)/E≃3%/ E/GeV.–It has good electron identification and e/π0dis-crimination thanks to the ability to distinguish single and double m.i.p.by ionization and to the bubble chamber quality space resolution.A neutrino event detected with a small proto-type(50litres)of the ICARUS detector is shown in Figure1[15].The detector has a modular structure,whose basic unit is a0.6kt module.The installation of afirst module at LNGS in the year2000has been approved.The second step of the ICARUS project should be the installation of3new mod-ules(for a total mass of2.4kt)in2003,when the NGS neutrino beam will be available.Recently the ICARUS collaboration has put forward the possibility to build a Super–ICARUS[14]detector of30kt to be placed just outside LNGS,with the aim of increasing the sen-sitivity to neutrino oscillations and cover com-pletely the SK allowed region.4.1.2.Theνµ↔ντoscillation searchWe report the results of the study made on the ICARUSνµ↔ντoscillation sensitivity assum-Figure1.An example of recorded neutrino in-teraction in a50liter Liquid Argon TPC proto-type exposed at the CERNνbeam.The neu-trino comes from the top of the picture.The hor-izontal axis is the time axis(drift direction)and vertically is the wire number.The visible area corresponds to47×32cm2ing4modules(2.4kt).Because of the high res-olution on measuring kinematical quantities,the ντappearance search in ICARUS is based on the kinematical suppression of the background using similar techniques to those of the NOMAD ex-periment[16].The basic idea consists in recon-structing,in the plane transverse to the incoming neutrino direction,the missing momentum due to the two undetected neutrinos produced inτlep-ton decays.Since the missing transverse momen-tum is approximately Lorentz invariant,theτde-tection efficiency should be constant as a function of theντenergy.Nevertheless,a slight decrease with increasing energy is expected,since the cuts applied to isolate the candidate events depend on the background rate,which is an increasing func-tion of the neutrino energy.4.1.3.Detection efficiency and background Theντidentification in ICARUS is under study for all theτdecay modes.Nevertheless very good results are already achievable with the golden sample of events namely theτ→e channel whose detection efficiency has been evaluated to be about50%.In this channel,the main background sources are theνe contamination in theνbeam and the π0’s in neutral current events misidentified as electrons.The rejection power of the latter is close to100%.Aνe event is a background either if there are undetected neutral hadrons in thefinal state or because of the smearing due to nuclear effects in the target nucleon and to the detector resolution.It has been shown that a background rejection factor of about100is sufficient to expect less than one background event in four years[14].4.2.OPERAThe OPERA experiment[17]is aimed to search forνoscillation looking at the appearance ofντin the NGS beam.Because of the target-detector distance,the high efficiency and the low back-ground(less than1event),the experiment will be able to probe the Super-Kamiokande signal witha very high discovery potential.4.2.1.The detectorThe OPERA detector consists of a0.75kt lead emulsion target.The basic element(cell)of the detector is composed of a1mm thick lead-plate followed by an emulsion sheet(ES1),a3mm drift space(filled with low density material)and an-other emulsion sheet(ES2)(see Figure reffig:ope). An ES1(ES2)is made of a pair of emulsion lay-ers50micron thick,on either side of a100(200) micron plastic base.Thirty cells are arranged to-gether to form a brick,which has15×15×13cm3 dimensions;bricks are put together to form a module(2.8×2.8×0.15m3).Since the emulsion does not have time reso-lution,there are electronic detectors after each module in order to correlate the neutrino inter-actions to the brick where they occur and to guide the scanning.Streamer tubes have been proposed as electronic detectors,but other pos-Figure2.The basic elements of the OPERA de-tectorsible solutions are under study.A total of300 modules are subdivided into10identical super-modules.The overall dimensions of the detector are3.5×3.5×40m3.4.2.2.Theνµ↔ντoscillation searchTheτ’s produced inντCC interactions,are detected by measuring their decay kink when oc-curring in the drift space.The kink angle is mea-sured by associating two high-precision3-D track segments reconstructed in ES1and ES2.The ba-sic factor which,in the present design,determines the detection efficiency is the probability that the τ,before its decay,exits the lead plate(1mm thick)where it is produced.So,the decay”kink”must occur in the drift space between consecutive emulsion layers.This drift space isfilled with low density material,to eliminate the re-interaction background,otherwise relevant for the hadronic decay channels.The kinkfinding efficiency is re-lated to a cut determined by the angular resolu-tion of the emulsion trackers.Only kink angles larger then a given value(20mrad)are accepted. The present estimate of the OPERAτdetection efficiency is about35%.We observe that theτdecays in the lead-target plates are not lost,but they do not offer the same golden background conditions.Studies are under way in order to use them to further increase the overall detection efficiency.4.2.3.The backgroundThe main source of background for the decays inside the gap is the production of charged charm particles with subsequent decay when the primary lepton is not detected.Monte Carlo simulation showed that the number of background events ex-pected from this source is well below1in four years.Thus OPERA is essentially a background free experiment.4.3.AQUA-RICHAQUA-RICH[18]has been proposed as a long baseline experiment at LNGS.The detector,con-taining125kt of water,uses the imaging Cerenkov technique to measure velocity,momentum and di-rection of almost all particles produced by neutri-nos interacting in water.Monte Carlo simulations show that hadrons are measured up to9GeV/c with∆p/p<7%and muons up to40GeV/c with∆p/p<2%.Track direction is determined from the width of the ring image with errorσ(θ)<5mrad,but track recon-struction(photon emission point)requires timing resolutionσt<1ns.The detector has to be sited outdoor,near the Gran Sasso Laboratory,and could be used also to observe atmospheric neutri-nos.4.3.1.Theνµ↔ντoscillation search Signal and background Monte Carlo events generated according to the NGS beam have been used to study the AQUA-RICH capability to search forνµ↔ντoscillations.Theτsignal could be observed selecting QE eventsντn→τp, followed by theτmuonic decay,with both the muon and the proton above threshold.A good separation betweenντsignal andνµbackground is possible as shown in[18]and will allow to have less than one background event in four years.4.4.NOENOE[19]has been proposed as a long base-line experiment to studyνµ↔ντandνµ↔νe oscillations.4.4.1.The detectorThe basic elements of the NOE detector are light transition radiation detector modules(TRD) for a total TRD mass of2.4kt interleaved with modules of a massivefine grain5.6kt calorimeter (CAL).A TRD and a CAL module together form the basic module of the NOE detector.The whole 8kt NOE detector is made of12subsequent basic modules.The TRD module is built with32layer of mar-ble(2cm thick,0.2radiation length)interleaved with layers of polyethylene foam radiators.The marble is used as target for theντappearance search.The CAL module is made of bars(with a cross–section of4×4cm2)where scintillatingfibres are embedded into a distributed absorber(iron ore). The electromagnetic and hadronic energy res-olution areσ(E)/E=17%/E/GeV+8%respectively. The muon direction and the hadronic shower axis are measured with a angular resolution σµ(θ)=0.022/ E h/GeV+0.351/(E h/GeV)re-spectively.Combining both CAL and TRD information, the rejection power to separate electrons from minimum ionising particles is10−3−10−4.The e/π0discrimination is based on the fact that,be-cause of the light TRD material,π0’s cross many TRD layers with low conversion probability. 4.4.2.Theνµ↔ντoscillation search Theνµ↔ντoscillation search is performed exploiting the kinematical identification of theτlepton decays exploiting the techniques developed by the NOMAD collaboration[16].So far the τ→e channel has been fully studied.The possi-bility to use theτ→πchannels is encouraging. Theτdetection efficiency in theτ→e channel has been evaluated to be≃22%.As already dis-cussed for the ICARUS experiment,a slight de-crease of the efficiency with increasing neutrino energy is expected.The corresponding background has been evalu-ated to be4.6events in four years mainly from the νe contamination,in theνµbeam.Details about the evaluation of all the background channels can be found in[19].4.5.NICEThe NICE experiment[20]has been proposed to study the Super-Kamiokande signal using the disappearance technique in a long baseline exper-iment.In order to exploit the maximum poten-tiality of the disappearance technique,it plans to exploit a low energy version(<Eν>≃6−7GeV) of the NGS neutrino beam;a close detector is also envisaged.A preliminary conceptual design of the detector is based on a large(≃10kt)compact isotropic iron-scintillator electromagnetic/hadron calorimeter,surrounded on4sides by a magne-tised iron spectrometer.The maximum sensitiv-ity of the experiment on∆m2,at full mixing,has been evaluated to be about5×10−4eV2,provided that the systematical error is below2%.4.6.Sensitivity and significance of the LBLexperimentsWe recall that to evaluate the sensitivity and the discovery potential of the experiments search-ing for neutrino oscillation in appearance mode,a running time of4years has been considered,cor-responding to1.6×1020pot operating the SPS in shared mode.The high energy NGS neutrino beam spectrum,optimized forντsearch,has been used.With the these assumptions,the typical sensi-tivity that could be reached with an experiment at LNGS,in absence ofντoscillation,is very sim-ilar for all the proposed experiments;the corre-sponding exclusion plot in the oscillation param-eters space is shown in Figure3.On the other hand,when we are in presence of a claim of discovery,the relevant parameter to quote is the significance,S=N s/√Table4Sensitivity of the proposedντappearance experimentsICARUS 2.4 2.5841.1×10−31.6×10−3 Super–ICARUS30 3.74210.3×10−30.8×10−3 OPERA0.750.45371.2×10−31.8×10−3 AQUA-RICH125<1631.4×10−32.3×10−3 NOE 2.4 4.6152.0×10−33.9×10−3method are not sensitive to calculations of atmo-sphericfluxes.We also remark that this method does not work with neutrinos at angles near to the horizontal,since the path lengths corresponding to a direc-tion and its mirror-direction are of the same or-der.If evidence of neutrino oscillation from the study ofνµdisappearance is obtained,a method based onτappearance can be used to discrim-inate between oscillationsνµ↔ντandνµ↔νsterile.Oscillations ofνµintoντwould in factresult in an excess of muon-less events produced by upward neutrinos with respect to muon-less downward.Due to threshold effects onτpro-duction this excess would be important at high energy.Oscillations into a sterile neutrino would instead result in a depletion of upward muon-less events.Discrimination betweenνµ↔ντand νµ↔νsterile is thus obtained from a study of the asymmetry of upward to downward muon-less events.Because this method works with the high energy component of atmospheric neutrinos, it becomes effective for∆m2>3×10−3eV2.5.2.Choice of the DetectorThe outlined experimental method requires that the energy E and directionθof the incoming neutrino be measured in each event.The latter, in the simplest experimental approach,can be es-timated from the direction of the muon produced in theνµcharged-current interaction.The esti-mate of the neutrino energy E requires the mea-surement of the energy of the muon and of the hadrons produced in the interaction.In order to make the oscillation pattern detectable,the ex-perimental requirement is that L/E be measured with an error smaller than half of the modula-tion period.This translates into requirements on the energy and angular resolutions of the de-tector.As a general feature the resolution on L/E improves at high energies,mostly because the muon direction gives an improved estimate of the neutrino direction.Thus the ability to mea-sure high momentum muons(in the multi-GeV range),which is rather limited in the on-going atmospheric neutrino experiments,would be par-ticularly rewarding.A detector with a high efficiency onµ/πsepara-tion is required for an effective implementation of the method proposed,while,leaving aside oscil-lations involving electron neutrinos,no stringent requirement is put on electron identification andelectromagnetic energy resolution.5.3.A Possible Detector StructureA large mass and high-density tracking calorimeter with horizontal sampling planes hasbeen proposed as a suitable detector[21].A massof a few tens of kilotons is necessary to have enough neutrino interaction rate at high energies,while the high-density enables to operate the de-tector as a muon range-meter.The detector consists in a stack of120horizon-tal iron planes8cm thick and15×30m2surface, interleaved by planes of sensitive elements(RPC’sand/or limited

to resolve the modulation periods typical of the os-cillation phenomena for∆m2values in the range2×10−4−5×10−3eV2.As an examples,the L/E distribution obtained with the method describedin section5.1for∆m2=10−3and sin2(2Θ)=0.9is plotted in Figure4.The discovery potential of the experiment,after three years of exposure, is also shown.As indicated by the ICARUS[14],AQUA–RICH[18]and NICE[20]collaborations,similarresults can be obtained with different detection techniques provided that the detector mass ex-ceeds several tens of kt.6.CONCLUSIONSWe believe that the neutrino oscillation search, based on the NGS facility complemented by atmospheric neutrino detection,constitutes an extremely appealing and realistic physics pro-Figure4.L/E analysis on a simulated

performνµ↔ντandνµ↔νe ap-pearance search while whileνµdisappearance isbetter identified exploiting atmospheric neutri-nos;to measure the oscillation parameters unam-bigously,a detector with very good L/E resolu-tion is needed.Even if the SK neutrino anomaly would turnout not to be due to neutrino oscillations,an un-likely but a priori not excluded possibility,thisexperimental programme would under all circum-stances explore a significant region of the oscilla-tion parameter space which is not accessible oth-erwise.The joint CERN–LNGS scientific commetteehas underlined the importance that the relevantdecisions to establish this program,or part of it,be taken as soon as possible by the appropriatebodies in order not to undermine its effectiveness.For the same reason,it has been highly recom-mendable that suitable experimental proposals bepresented in October1999along the lines givenabove and with appropriate strengths of the col-laborations.If promptly funded the CERN–LNGS neutrinoprogram could start taking data by the year2003.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTWe gratefully acknowledge the organisers ofthe XVIII International Conference on NeutrinoPhysics and Astrophysics for giving us
