DOIAbstract
The concept of the Magnetized Emulsion Cloud Chamber is here described. It is shown how the presence of a magnetic field and the use of an emulsion spectrometer permit very good charge reconstruction and enhance the momentum determination capabilities, keeping at the same time the high accuracy and compactness of the Emulsion Cloud Chamber, presently used in the OPERA experiment. The design of such a detector and its tuning, performed so far by means of simulations and a dedicated test beam, is done with the ambitious aim to fulfill all the requirements for an ideal detector operating at a neutrino facility
