Abstract

We report the results of an initial investigation of high-energy neutrino interactions using a dichromatic neutrino beam. Two bands of neutrinos, from pion decay (Eν50 GeV) and kaon decay (Eν145 GeV), were incident on a counter-spark-chamber detector. We discuss analysis of events of the type νμ+Nμ+hadrons. Qualitative comparisons are made with lower-energy neutrino results and the deep-inelastic eN scaling structure functions.
