Abstract

A new method of detecting interaction vertices applicable to a vertical emulsion target of a hybrid apparatus has been studied. It is shown that even a white neutrino interaction with no heavily ionizing track can be detected with high efficiency by following back a secondary track predicted by down-stream detectors. The scanning time needed is far shorter than that of conventional volume scanning method.
