Neutrino CC and NC Scattering without Pion Production 3
- Deborah Appel Harris (York University (CA))
Measurements of neutrino-nucleus interactions provide an important benchmark for the theoretical models needed to perform precision neutrino oscillation analyses. An understanding of electron neutrino scattering is crucial for determination of charge parity (CP) violation in the leptonic sector. Potential mismodeling of these interactions can limit the sensitivity of forthcoming experiments...
The MicroBooNE detector is the world's longest-running liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) and recently completed operating in the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam. One of the primary physics goals of MicroBooNE is to perform detailed studies of neutrino-argon scattering cross sections, which are critical for the success of future neutrino oscillation experiments. At neutrino energies...
Recent results showing that lattice calculations provide a remarkably good description of the measured vector form factors of the nucleon indicate that this approach has reached a high level of reliability. I will report the results of calculations of the cross section of the process 12C(νμ,μ- p) averaged over the neutrino fluxes of the MiniBooNE and T2K experiments. The analysis has been...
