Dataset of tau neutrino interactions recorded by the OPERA experiment

We describe the dataset of very rare events recorded by the OPERA experiment. The events represent tracks of particles associated with tau neutrino interactions coming from the transformation of muon neutrinos due to a process known as neutrino oscillations. The events have been published on the CERN Open Data Portal. We describe the dataset semantics and the interactive event display visualisation tool accompanying the data release.
