2 OUTLINE The riddle of the flux integrated neutrino-nucleus cross section The issue of degeneracy between different models of the inclusive cross section in the 0π channel Exploit exclusive channels to resolve the degeneracy The (e, e p) cross section and the nuclear spectral function The Ar, T i(e, e p) experiment at Jefferson Lab Summary & outlook 1 / 21
3 THE ISSUE OF FLUX AVERAGE The energy-transfer dependence of the cross section of the process e + A e + X at fixed beam energy and electron scattering angle displays a complex landscape. The contributions of the main reaction mechanisms involving both nuclear and nucleon structure can be clearly identified 2 / 21
4 In neutrino interactions, e.g. ν µ + A µ + X the energy of the incoming particle is spread according to a broad distribution, and different reaction mechanisms contribute to the cross section at fixed muon energy and emission angle This feature clearly emerges from the analysis of the available electron-scattering data 3 / 21
5 WHERE WE ARE Even if we restrict ourselves to the 0π sector, the interpretation of the signals measured by neutrino detectors require the understanding of the different reaction mechanisms contributing to the neutrino-nucleus cross section: single-nucleon knock out, coupling to meson-exchange currents (MEC), and excitation of collective modes Over the 15 years since the first NuINT Workshop that we may characterize as the post Fermi-gas age a number of more advanced models have been developed Electron scattering data, mainly inclusive cross sections, have been exploited to derive or validate the some of proposed models Several models have achieved the degree of maturity required for a meaningful comparison between their predictions and the measured neutrino-nucleus cross sections Very accurate results have been also obtained from Quantum Monte Carlo calculations. However, this approach is is inherently non relativistic, and its applicability is limited 4 / 21

For larger values of Q , however, FSI play a less observed at lower muon kinetic energy as a result of the relevant, in fact almost negligible, 2000 role. This feature is average500 over the neutrino flux [35]. The strong angular dependence of the two-nucleon current contribution may GeV and scattering angle θ e 0¼ 37.5 deg, corresponding to Q 2 N. also provide a clue for the understanding of the differences Rocco GeV , the etresults al of calculations carried out between the quasielastic cross sections reported by the Megias et al MiniBooNEE=2500 Collaboration MeV, θ=15 o, and q the NOMAD Collaboration E=1650 MeV, θ=13.5 o, q QE =388 MeV/c E=680 MeV, θ=36 [36], which collected data o QE =658.6 MeV/c, q QE =402.5 MeV/c 4000 E=1108 M E=440 MeV 3e using neutrino 0.55fluxes with very different mean energies: 880 MeV0.9 and 25 GeV, (a) respectively [35] e As a final remark, it has to be pointed out that a clear-cut identification of the variety of reaction mechanisms 0.45 contributing to the neutrino-nucleus cross section will 1e require a careful analysis of the assumptions underlying 0.4 different 0.4 models of nuclear dynamics.

The results also suggest that the neutrino flux could have been underestimated. Besides, we20 µ < 0.7 have found that the procedure commonly used to reconstruct the neutrino energy for quasielastic events from the muon angle and energy could be unreliable for a wide region of the phase space, due to the large importance of multinucleon events. It is clear that experiments on neutrino reactions on complex nuclei have reached a precision level that requires for a quantitative description of sophisticated theoretical approaches. Apart from being important in the study of neutrino physics, these experiments are starting to provide very valuable information on the axial structure of hadrons cm 2 /GeV) 15 The degeneracy issue: The result of Nieves et al show a significant contribution arising from the excitation 0.5 < cosθ µ of < 0.6 nuclear 16 collective modes (RPA), which is not included in the approach of 14 Megias et al Acknowledgments We thank L.

8 UNRAVELING THE NEUTRINO-NUCLEUS CROSS SECTION An accurate description of the 2p2h sector and collective excitations, providing a 20% contribution to the nuclear cross section, is only relevant to the extent to which the remaining 80%, arising from processes involving 1p1h final states, is fully understood. The ability of the models to explain single-nucleon knock out needs to be assessed Fifty years of (e, e p) experiments, in which the scattered electron and the outgoing proton are detected in coincidence, have provided a wealth of information on single nucleon knock-out processes, associated with 1p1h final states, as well as clear-cut evidence of the coupling between the 1p1h and 2p2h sectors The large database of (e, e p) cross sections measured mainly at Saclay, NIKHEF-K and Jefferson Lab must be exploited to test the theoretical approaches employed to study neutrino-nucleus interaction, and assess their predictive power 7 / 21
9 THE (e, e p) REACTION Consider the process e + A e + p + (A 1) e e in which both the outgoing electron and the proton, carrying momentum p, are detected in coincidence, and the recoiling nucleus can be left in a any (bound or continuum) state n with energy E n In the absence of final state interactions (FSI) which can be taken into acount as corrections the the measured missing momentum and missing energy can be identified with the momentum of the knocked out nucleon and the excitation energy of the recoiling nucleus, E n E 0 q,ω p p m = p q, E m = ω T p T A 1 ω T p 8 / 21

13 PINNING DOWN THE 1P1H SECTOR At moderate missing energy typically E m < 50 MeV the recoiling nucleus is left in a bound state The final state is a 1p1h state of the A-nucleon system The missing energy spectrum exhibits spectroscopic lines, corresponding to knock out from the shell model states. However the normalization of the shell model states is suppressed with respect to the predictions of the independent particle model. The momentum distributions of nucleons in the shell model states can be obtained measuring the missing momentum spectra at fixed missing energy Consider 12 C(e, e p) 11 B, as an example. The expected 1p1h final states are 11 B(3/2 ), p, 11 B(1/2 ), p, / 21

16 WHERE IS THE MISSING 1P1H STRENGTH? The correlation strength in the 2p2h sector arises from processes involving high momentum nucleons, with p m > 400 MeV. The relevant missing energy scale can be easily understood considering that momentum conservation requires E m = E thr + p m 2 + m 2 m Scattering off a nucleon belonging to a correlated pair entails a strong energy-momentum correlation 15 / 21

22 SUMMARY & OUTLOOK A number of advanced models of the electroweak nuclear cross section the 0π sector have been developed and extensively tested The degeneracy between models based on different physics must be resolved. The available electron scattering data in exclusive channels can play a critical role in this context (e, e p) data at low missing energy and low missing momentum provide model independent information on single-nucleon knock out, which is known to provide the dominant contribution to the cross section in quasi-elastic kinematics The upcoming models of the Argon and Titanium spectral functions, based on the data collected by the JLab E experiment, will allow to pin down the contribution of single-nucleon knock out processes in neutron-rich nuclei, the description of which involves non trivial difficulties Note that, being an intrinsic property of the target, the spectral function is needed to obtain the nuclear cross sections in both the elastic and inelastic channels 21 / 21
