1 The MINERnA Experiment What is Minerna? Why Mienrna? n / n CCQE sections Inclusive n sections n beam and n flux Outlook INPC 2013 June 4 th 13 Alessandro Bravar for the Mienrna Collaboration
2 The MINERnA Experiment nuclear targets: He, C, H 2 0, Fe Pb fully active scintillator tracker
3 Detector Performance Good tracking resolution (~3mm) Calorimetry for charged hadrons and EM showers Timing information (few ns) pileup: several rock muons and several n interactions per spill Containment of n-induced events up to several GeV (except for muons) Muon energy and charge measurement in MINOS ND PID from de/dx and energy/range no charge determination except for muons entering MINOS ND
4 flux (neutrinos / m 2 / GeV / 10 6 POT) Collected Data NuMI Low Energy Beam, FTFP hadron production corrected flux n m n m neutrino energy (GeV) GeV Low Energy (LE, peak ~3 GeV) run? 2010? 2120 LE n mode POT LE anti-n mode POT flux-calibration POT Medium Energy (ME, peak ~6 GeV) run about to start 2018? (NOnA era) n and anti-n running
5 neutrinos weak probe of nuclear (LE) and hadronic (ME) structure axial form factors of the nucleon parton distribution functions (DIS) nucleons are confined in nuclei and are not free expect deviations from n nucleon interactions modifications of nucleon (hadron) structure, like EMC effect (DIS) Why MINERnA? existing data (~1 20 GeV) poorly understood mainly (old) bubble chamber data low statistics samples large uncertainties of n flux need detailed understanding of n m and anti- n m -sections n oscillation precision neutrino oscillation measurements all experiments use nuclear targets (C, H 2 0, Ar, Fe) additional complication whose impact needs to be understood oscillation parameters: n energy E vis not equal E n appearance / disappearence need to know precisely s backgrounds for n e appearance studies (including searches for CP in n sector) CC events with p 0, lost m NC p 0 production: n + N n + N + p 0 electrons n e content of accelerator n beams

16 Outlook MINERnA studies neutrino interactions in the 1 20 GeV region with high precision using a variety of nuclear targets (He, C, H 2 0, Fe, Pb) using a fine-grained, high resolution fully active scintillator detector MINERnA has measured the flux averaged differential cross-section ds/dq 2 for neutrinos and antineutrinos on a hydrocarbon (CH) target. The shape of both of these cross-sections disfavor a simple RFG modeling of the carbon nucleus for scattering at these energies, strengthening the call for improved modeling in (anti)neutrino scattering. Studies of quasi-elastic scattering are being extended to different nuclear targets (A-dependence) Soon to come: Inclusive cross-section measurements Single pion production Data taking with a medium energy n beam to start soon, E n peak ~6 GeV. The higher neutrino beam energy will allow us to access the DIS region and study quark distributions at high x, x > 0.1
