Résumé

Precise neutrino-nucleus interaction measurements in the sub-multi-GeV region are important to reduce the systematic uncertainty in future neutrino oscillation experiments. Furthermore, an excess of ν e interactions, as a possible interpretation of the existence of a sterile neutrino, has been observed in such an energy region. The nuclear emulsion technique can measure all the final state particles with low energy threshold for a variety of targets (Fe, C, H 2 O, and so on). Its sub-μm position resolution allows measurements of the ν e cross-section with good electron/gamma separation capability.We started a new experiment at J-PARC to study sub-multi-GeV neutrino interactions by introducing the nuclear emulsion technique. The J-PARC T60 experiment has been implemented as a first step in such a project. Systematic neutrino event analysis with full scanning data in the nuclear emulsion detector was performed for the first time. The first neutrino event detection and its analysis are described in this paper.
