Abstract content

The 980 ton MINOS Near Detector is located at the end of the NuMI beam facility at Fermilab in a 100 m deep underground cavern. It was designed to study neutrino oscillations with the Fermilab NuMI beam in conjunction with the MINOS Far Detector. The magnetized Near Detector has been recording charge-separated atmospheric cosmic-ray muons since January 2005. A preliminary measurement of the Muon Charge Ratio using the MINOS Near Detector will be presented.
