We report preliminary results of a Monte Carlo study to search for Centauro events in the DO Detector at Fermilab. Montecarlo simulation of minimum bias events are being carried out using the ISAJET and DOGEANT packages to study the detector response for low energy particles and to understand the background. Preliminary indications are that the detector is capable of resolving individual particles. Further work on developing reconstruction algorithms for individual particles is in progress.
