Abstract
The ICARUS experiment is a liquid Argon TPC with imaging capabilities, able to produce high granularity 3D reconstruction of recorded events as well as high precision measurements over large sensitive volumes. This multipurpose detector opens up unique opportunities to look for phenomena beyond the Standard Model through the study of atmospheric, solar and supernova neutrinos, nucleon decay searches and neutrinos from the CERN to Gran Sasso beam. The successful operation of a 600 ton device and the ongoing analysis of the recorded data have shown that the liquid Argon technology is now mature and suitable for the construction of very massive detectors. The T600 detector will be moved to its underground location at LNGS laboratory and will hopefully begin operation during fall 2005.
