The Irvine — Michigan — Brookhaven Deep Underground Detector — A Progress Report

  • Chapter
Gauge Theories, Massive Neutrinos and Proton Decay

Abstract

We report on the development of an 8000 ton detector designed to study nucleon stability. Design criteria are reviewed and additional physics objectives, within the capabilities of the current detector, are noted.
