We propose a new high-resolution neutrino experiment within a dipole magnetic field, HiResMν. This experiment will run along with long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments (LBLν) such as NOνA, a large-cavity detector at DUSEL, or a Liquid-Argon detector in the Medium-Energy (ME) configuration of the NuMI-beam. Assuming the 120 GeV Main Injector proton intensities we anticipate 140(50) million νμ (⊽μ) Charged-Current (CC) events in the fiducial volume, for 3(4)-year run with the ME (anti)neutrino beam. Alternatively, the same statistics could be collected in just 1(1.5) year with the High Energy (HE) beam configuration. …
