Abstract

A new apparatus for detection of νμ→ντ oscillation has been successfully constructed and operated by the CHORUS Collaboration for the CERN-WA95 experiment. The design, implementation and performance of the electronic trigger system is described. A trigger efficiency of 99% was measured for νμ charged-current events and 90% for neutral-current events.
