Confronting theory, models & data
Talk
This will be review of three or four pre-NuInt09 experimental puzzles and how experiments have dealt with them up to now. Rather than a simple review of past NuInt presentations, the focus of the talk will be the connection between models and experiment. Using these recent experimental puzzles, I will explore how and where improved application of theory can make a significant impact on the...

Neutrino event generators are a crucial link between theory and experiment and play an important role in the design of new experiments and the analysis of experimental data. These programs have advanced significantly since the start of the NuINT series in 2001. In this talk, I will describe the evolution of this field over the last decade, focusing on the physics content of several...

Electron scattering experiments have clearly exposed the limits of the shell model description of atomic nuclei.
I will discuss the dynamics leading to the appearance of strong correlation effects, and their impact on the
nuclear cross sections in the impulse approximation regime.
