Status of ICARUS
  The ICARUS detector is a liquid argon time projection chamber. It provides three dimensional imaging and calorimetry of ionizing particles over a large volume, with high granularity. Its Physics program includes the study of atmospheric, solar, supernovae and beam neutrinos as well as proton decay searches. The ICARUS technology has reached maturity with the construction and test (during summer 2001) of a 600 ton detector, demonstrating the feasibility of building large mass devices relevant for non-accelerator physics. During this test run, more than 27000 cosmic ray events have been acquired. These data allow to assess the detector performance, i.e. the spatial reconstruction, calorimetry and particle identification.
