Atmospheric tau neutrinos in a multikiloton liquid argon detector

An ultralarge liquid argon time projection chamber based neutrino detector will have the uncommon ability to detect atmospheric nuτ/nu τ events. This paper discusses the most promising modes for identifying charged current nuτ/nu τ, and shows that, with simple kinematic cuts, ∼30 nuτ+nu τ interactio...
