3 4. Motivation Many neutrino oscillation experiments need to achieve E/L ~ 0-3 GeV/km, so for distances ~000 km, we need interactions around GeV. or example, TK, MINOS, atmospheric experiments require knowledge of cross-section between 0.4 and GeV/c to perform accurate m 3 and θ 3 analysis TK NUCT08 Summer School 3
4 4. Motivation round GeV there is a complicated region where deep inelastic scattering (DIS, quasi-elastic (EL scattering and resonance production (for example, π production co-exist NUCT08 Summer School 4

12 4.4 Resonant pion production Duality: use electron scattering data to improve precision of model Can observe individual resonances with good agreement data and model Bodek and Yang NUCT08 Summer School
13 4.5 Coherent pion production Neutrinos can also produce pions coherently (low and high ν The neutrino coherently scatters off the whole nucleus with negligible energy transfer to the whole nucleus of mass This results in a forward scattered single pion (background in oscillation searches because forward peaked Neutral and charged current processes are possible: 0 ν ν π π ν Rein and Sehgal s model also describes coherent pion production: Cross-section: dσ G M m f E y π ν ( d dydt π 6π m f πn (0 pion- nucleon scattering amplitude r fπ 0. 93mπ pion decay constant t x / λ abs e pion absorption b ( / 3 R / 3 impact parameter ( πn b t σ tot ( r e abs NUCT08 Summer Exponential School in t distribution Re[ fπ N(0 ] Im[ fπ N(0 ] ( ( E p ( ( p ( q pπ i i i i 3 i

19 5. Nuclear Effects 5. ermi smearing and Pauli blocking 5. Nuclear re-interactions NUCT08 Summer School 9
20 5. ermi smearing and Pauli blocking Nuclear effects in neutrino scattering: In a nucleus, the target nucleon has a momentum which modifies scattering Modelled as ermi gas that fills up all available states until some initial state ermi momentum, k The Pauli exclusion principle ensures that states cannot occupy states that are already filled (Pauli blocking Particles that escape nuclear medium may be re-scattered and deflected by the ermi momentum, especially at low energies. We need better understanding of the ermi motion or example, MiniBoone have already published a paper suggesting a modification to the ermi gas model based on matching E scattering in all values of with their data. NUCT08 Summer School 0
21 5. ermi smearing and Pauli blocking Effects on Structure unctions: In charged lepton scattering, have observed shadowing and modifications to PDs due to nucleons. t small x, coherent interaction of a hadronic component of the virtual photon with target nucleus - shadowing It is not clear if this is also present in neutrino structure functions since at low x, dominated by axial current nti-shadowing These effects need to be studied in detail with high statistics neutrino scattering Shadowing ermi motion NUCT08 Summer School EMC effect
22 5. Re-interactions Nuclear effects in resonance region: Production of resonance may be affected by nuclear medium (see plot of photoabsorption data Resonant structure gets washed out Pions may either rescatter or be absorbed. This needs to be measured NUCT08 Summer School
23 Conclusions Neutrino interactions have provided valuable insight into the theory of weak interactions Maximal parity violation, V- theory and finally the Glashow-Weinberg- Salam electroweak theory were developed in part from information on neutrino interactions Neutrino interaction data is used to probe the electroweak theory, such as in the measurements of sin θ W. Neutrino interactions have also provided information on the structure of nucleons Structure function measurements and scaling violations have been observed ( 3 is only accessible through neutrino interactions Neutrino oscillations allow us to probe the grand unification energy scale, but it is crucial that we understand further the ~ GeV energy region to be able to exploit oscillation experiments to the maximum new generation of experiments is commencing to lead the way towards a new precision era in neutrino interaction physics NUCT08 Summer School 3
