Exploring Nuclear Aspects of Neutrino Interactions in Neutrino Oscillation Experiments
The ERC NeutrinoNuclei project aims to enhance neutrino oscillation measurements by improving understanding of neutrino-nucleus interactions through comparative analysis of electron and neutrino scattering data.
Projectdetails
Introduction
The ability of current and next generation accelerator-based neutrino oscillation measurements to reach their desired sensitivity and provide new insight into the nature of our Universe requires a high level of understanding of the neutrino-nucleus interactions.
Importance of Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions
These interactions include:
- Precise estimation of the relevant cross sections
- Reconstruction of the incident neutrino energy from the measured final state particles
Incomplete understanding of these interactions can skew the reconstructed neutrino spectrum and thereby bias the extraction of fundamental oscillation parameters and searches for new physics.
Proposal Overview
This proposal exploits the similarity of electron- and neutrino-nucleus interactions. It leverages:
- Wide phase-space exclusive electron scattering data with known beam energies
- Neutrino scattering data in the same energy region
- Similar nuclear targets
These elements will be used to test energy reconstruction methods and interaction models.
Project Goals
The ERC NeutrinoNuclei project will deliver:
- A well-constrained simulation environment
- Uncertainties of the neutrino-nuclei interaction
These outcomes aim to meet the requirements of future high-precision experiments.
