ORLANDO - OAK-RIDGE LARGE NEUTRINO DETECTOR

We discuss a proposal for construction of an Oak Ridge LArge Neutrino DetectOr (ORLANDO) to search for neutrino oscillations at the Spallati on Neutron Source (SNS). A 4 MW SNS is proposed to be built at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory with the first stage to be operative around 2006. It will have two target stations, which makes it possible with a single detector to perform a neutrino oscillation search at two diff erent distances. Initial plans for the placement of the detector and t he discovery potential of such a detector are discussed.
