We propose to carry out a muon neutrino experiment using the Tohoku High Resolution One Meter Freon Bubble Chamber during the scheduled wide band and narrow band neutrino run periods beginning some time after September 1984. A total of 8800 neutrino charged current events is expected in a restricted fiducial volume region for the wide band ($$1 \times 10^{18} \text{p}$$) and narrow band ($$1 \times 10^{18} \text{p}$$) runs. Physics aims are the further investigation of (a) the production and properties of charmed particles, for which 500-900 charmed particles will be analyzed by the holographic optics, and (b) neutrino interactions in the high $$Q^{2}$$ region above 100 (GeV)2, to be reached for the first time by the TEVATRON. A mini-detector system, which consists of the Tohoku one meter freon bubble chamber with holographic optics, superconducting magnet of 28.5 kG, an interaction triggering system, and a muon detector system, will be used. In Appendix I a detailed procedure is presented for charm analysis, based on our experience in a charm photo-production experiment, SLAC BC 72/73. In Appendix II the measurement error of the muon momentum and the resolution of relevant quantities in our analysis for the high $$Q^{2}$$ region are discussed, based on our experience from the neutrino-deuterium experiment, FNAL E 545.
