MINERvA neutrino interaction experiment input to the ESPP

Not scheduled
1m

Description

The MINERvA neutrino interaction experiment operated at Fermilab from 2009 to 2019. We achieved a set of measurements on nuclei from helium to lead that support current and future neutrino experiments. Among neutrino experiments, we have a world-leading number of scientific publications with about twenty more in the pipeline. In our experience, new measurements on elementary nucleons (hydrogen and deuterium) would be especially valuable. Support for the Phase 2 DUNE near detector with gas argon technology is also complementary to our program. MINERvA will be releasing a public data preservation product toward the end of 2025. Deeper use of the MINERvA data in addition to our publications will be complementary to new dedicated and oscillation near detector measurements. We also want to see the strong neutrino interaction theory and phenomenology community in Europe grow to maximize use of recent data.
