摘要：

Present status of the long base-line neutrino oscillation experiment(KEKPS-E362) and future plan are described. With 10(20) protons on target from 12 GeV KEK-PS, the experiment can observe neutrino oscillation with more than 3 sigma effect for Delta m(2) greater than or equal to 2 x 10(-3) eV(2) and sin(2)2 theta greater than or equal to 0.4 in the nu(mu) disappearance channel, and Delta m(2) greater than or equal to 3 x 10(-3) eV(2), sin(2)2 theta greater than or equal to 0.1 in the nu(mu) --> nu(e) appearance channel. The next step of the program will be the identification of nu(tau). A preliminary study indicates it is possible to identify tau production in water Cherenkov detector.
