The workshop information is available from the Workshop Web page; http://psux1.kek.jp/~nufact01/index.html. 1. General Information A neutrino factory is a neutrino source based on a muon storage ring to produce high-intensity energetic neutrinos, either electron- and muon-neutrinos and their anti-neutrinos. They are produced from decays of the muons in the straight section(s) of the muon storage ring. The energy of neutrino beams ranges from a few GeV to several 10 GeV. A number of neutrinos of about 10^{20}-10^{21} neutrinos/year/straight section is aimed. The beam intensity thus anticipated is about 100 times the present intensity of conventional beams based on pion decays in the corresponding energy region. It is firmly believed that a neutrino factory would open great opportunity for significant progress in neutrino physics in future. The first workshop of this series was held in Lyon, France, in 1999, and the second one was held in Monterey, U.S. in 2000. In the past two meetings, physics potential and feasibility of neutrino factories based on a muon storage ring were extensively discussed. Enthusiasm of the realization has grown significantly. Since then, further extensive studies are being undertaken in US and CERN, as well as in Japan. Therefore, it is quite timely to have this workshop in Japan, May 2001. Another important emphasis, which has happened timely, is the approval of the KEK/JAERI Joint Project in Japan, constructing the 50-GeV proton synchrotron of about 1 Mega watt beam power. It would provide a great opportunity to construct a neutrino factory in Japan in future. And it would be useful for all the scientists in the world to carry out necessary R&D works for a neutrino factory and a mu^{+}mu^{-} collider, with this high intensity proton beam. 2.

Scientific Programs The workshop will start on the morning of May 24th (Thu.) and will end in the afternoon of May 30th (Wed.). On May 27th (Sun.), we have one day off. The workshop consists of plenary talks and parallel working group sessions. The tentative allocation of the plenary talks and working group sessions can be seen in the Web page. 3.1 Plenary Talks The topics of the plenary talks will cover 1 Experimental Status of Neutrino Oscillation 2 Theory of Neutrino Oscillation 3 Baryon Asymmetry from Leptonic CP violation 4 GUT implications of Neutrino Mass 5 Physics Reach of Conventional Super-beam 6 Status of Neutrino Factory Design Studies (US/Europe/Japan) 7 Status of Neutrino Factory R&D Studies (Targetry and Muon Cooling) 8 Rare Muon Decay Prospects at the Neutrino Factory 9 Short Baseline Neutrino Physics 10 Higgs Factory and Muon Collider The details of the scientific program will be posted on the Web page when they are fixed. 3.2 Working Groups There are three working groups, which are Working Group 1 : Neutrino Oscillation Physics (theories and experiments) Working Group 2 : Short Baseline Neutrino Physics and Rare (theories and experiments) Working Group 3 : Accelerator Studies and R&D All the contributions should be sent to the contact persons (leaders) in the corresponding working group. The programs of each working group sessions will be determined by the working group leaders. They will be posted in the Web page when they are available. 4. Workshop Site The workshop will be held at International Congress Center, Epochal Tsukuba, which is located at the downtown Tsukuba. The information of Epochal Tsukuba is available in our ``Access and Maps'' page of the NuFACT'01 workshop Web page. 5. Registration The registration can be made by either online in our ``Registration'' Web page, or sending the registration form to us by fax. The registration form can be downloaded from the Web page. You can fill the form and send it by fax to the Registration Office of NuFACT'01, whose fax number is +81-3-3263-7077. Or you can email it as an attachment to nufactreg__AT__isc-inc.co.jp.
