Abstract

The SBN program at Fermilab aims to measure ν μ → ν e neutrino oscillations at ∼ 1 km/GeV, resulting from the existence of a sterile neutrino, namely a fourth neutrino mass eigenstate at 1 eV that does not interact weakly but participate at the oscillation phenomenon with the three standard neutrinos. The SBN Far Detector, ICARUS T600, was run at LNGS Lab from 2010 to 2013 as the first and largest LArTPC ever operated. At Fermilab ICARUS is at the surface and therefore a Cosmic Ray Tagger system is necessary in order to reject the cosmic ray background. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
