Abstract

In this article, we highlight physics improvements in the NuWro Monte Carlo event generator. The upcoming version of NuWro will incorporate the integration of the argon spectral function for quasi-elastic scattering, along with the MINER$\nu$A parametrization of the axial form factor. Additionally, the new release will feature the implementation of the Valencia 2020 model for meson exchange current. The previously used simplistic delta resonance model for single-pion production will be replaced by a more accurate Ghent hybrid model in the upcoming version of NuWro. We also discuss the recent advancements made by the Wroclaw Neutrino Group in applying machine-learning techniques to achieve model-independent reconstruction of lepton-nucleus interactions, Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures.

Abstract

We present the implementation and results of a new model for the n-particle n-hole ($\it{np-nh}$) contribution in the NuWro event generator, grounded in the theoretical framework established by the Valencia group in 2020. For the $\it{2p2h}$ component, we introduce a novel nucleon sampling function with tunable parameters to approximate correlations in the momenta of outgoing nucleons. These parameters are calibrated by comparing our results to those of the Valencia model across a range of incoming neutrino energies. In addition, our model incorporates a distinct contribution from the $\it{3p3h}$ mechanism. We discuss the differences between the new NuWro implementation, the original Valencia model, and the previous NuWro version, focusing on the distribution of outgoing nucleon momenta. Finally, we assess the impact of the hadronic model on experimental analyses involving hadronic observables., Comment: 17 pages, 11 figures

Abstract

We have performed a global extraction of the ${\rm ^{12}C}$ longitudinal (${\cal R}_L$) and transverse (${\cal R}_T$) nuclear electromagnetic response functions from an analysis of all available electron scattering data on carbon. The response functions are extracted for energy transfer $\nu$, spanning the nuclear excitation, quasielastic (QE), resonance and inelastic continuum over a large range of the square of the four-momentum transfer ($Q^2$), for fixed values of $Q^2$ and for fixed values of 3-momentum transfer $\bf q$. The data sample consists of approximately 10,000 differential electron scattering and photo-absorption-cross section measurement points for ${\rm ^{12}C}$. In addition, we perform a universal fit to all ${\rm ^{12}C}$ electron scattering data which also provides parmeterizations of ${\cal R}_L$ and ${\cal R}_T$ over a larger kinematic range. Since the extracted response functions and the universal fit cover a large range of $Q^2$ and $\nu$, they can be readily used for comparison to theoretical predictions as well as validating and tuning Monte Carlo generators for electron and neutrino scattering experiments. In this paper we focus on the nuclear excitation, QE, and $\Delta$(1232) regions and compare the measurements to predictions of the following theoretical approaches: ``Energy Dependent-Relativistic Mean Field'' (ED-RMF), ``Green's Function Monte Carlo'' (GFMC), "Short Time Approximation Quantum Monte Carlo" (STA-QMC), "Correlated Fermi Gas" (CFG), as well as the {\textsc{NuWro}}, \ {{\sc{achilles}}}~ and {{\sc{genie}}}~generators. We find that among all the models ED-RMF provides the best description of both the QE and {\it nuclear excitations} response functions over the largest kinematic range $0.01\le Q^2 \le 1.25$ GeV$^2$. The ED-RMF formalism has the added benefit that it should be directly applicable to the same kinematic regions for neutrino scattering., Comment: 34 pages, 23 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. D

Abstract

Transfer learning (TL) allows a deep neural network (DNN) trained on one type of data to be adapted for new problems with limited information. We propose to use the TL technique in physics. The DNN learns the physics of one process, and after fine-tuning, it makes predictions for related processes. We consider the DNNs, trained on inclusive electron-carbon scattering data, and show that after fine-tuning, they accurately predict cross sections for electron interactions with nuclear targets ranging from lithium to iron. The method works even when the DNN is fine-tuned on a small dataset., Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures

Abstract

The determination of the nuclear spectral function from the measured cross section of the electron-nucleus scattering process $e + A \to e^\prime + p + (A-1)$is discussed, and illustrated for the case of a carbon target. The theoretical model based on the local density approximation, previously employed to derive the spectral function from a combination of accurate theoretical calculations and experimental data, has been developed further by including additional information obtained from measurements performed with high missing energy resolution. The implications for the analysis of $\gamma$-ray emission associated with nuclear deexcitation are considered.

Abstract

Employing the neural network framework, we obtain empirical fits to the electron-scattering cross sections for carbon over a broad kinematic region, extending from the quasielastic peak through resonance excitation to the onset of deep-inelastic scattering. We consider two different methods of obtaining such model-independent parametrizations and the corresponding uncertainties: based on the bootstrap approach and the Monte Carlo dropout approach. In our analysis, the $\chi^2$ defines the loss function, including point-to-point and normalization uncertainties for each independent set of measurements. Our statistical approaches lead to fits of comparable quality and similar uncertainties of the order of $7$%. To test these models, we compare their predictions to test datasets excluded from the training process and theoretical predictions obtained within the spectral function approach. The predictions of both models agree with experimental measurements and theoretical calculations. We also perform a comparison to a dataset lying beyond the covered kinematic region, and find that the bootstrap approach shows better interpolation and extrapolation abilities than the one based on the dropout algorithm., Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures; fits and full list of plots are available from repository: https://github.com/bekowal/CarbonElectronNeuralNetwork

Abstract

The Short-Baseline Neutrino program in Fermilab aims to resolve the nature of the low-energy excess events observed in LSND and MiniBooNE, and analyze with unprecedented precision neutrino interactions with argon. These studies require reliable estimate of neutrino cross sections, in particular for charged current quasielastic scattering (CCQE). Here, we report updates of the NuWro Monte Carlo generator that, most notably, bring the state-of-the-art spectral functions to model the ground state properties of the argon nucleus, and improve the accuracy of the cross sections at low energies by accounting for the effects of the nuclear Coulomb potential. We discuss these developments in the context of electron and neutrino interactions, by comparing updated NuWro predictions to experimental data from Jefferson Laboratory Hall A and MicroBooNE. The MicroBooNE CCQE data are described with the $\chi^2$ per degree of freedom of 0.7, compared with 1.0 in the local Fermi gas model. The largest improvement is observed for the angular distributions of the produced protons, where the $\chi^2$ reduces nearly by half. Being obtained using the axial form factor parametrization from MINERvA, our results indicate a~consistency between the CCQE measurements in MINERvA and MicroBooNE., Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures, matches the published version

8. Assessing the accuracy of the GENIE event generator with electron-scattering data

Abstract

Precision neutrino oscillation experiments of the future---of which DUNE is a prime example---require reliable event generator tools. The 1--4 GeV energy regime, in which DUNE will operate, is marked by the transition from the low-energy nuclear physics domain to that of perturbative QCD, resulting in rich and highly complex physics. Given this complexity, it is important to establish a validation procedure capable of disentangling the physical processes and testing each of them individually. Here, we demonstrate the utility of this approach by benchmarking the GENIE generator, currently used by all Fermilab-based experiments, against a broad set of inclusive electron-scattering data. This comparison takes advantage of the fact that, while electron-nucleus and neutrino-nucleus processes share a lot of common physics, electron scattering gives one access to precisely known beam energies and scattering kinematics. Exploring the kinematic parameter range relevant to DUNE in this manner, we observe patterns of large discrepancies between the generator and data. These discrepancies are most prominent in the pion-producing regimes and are present not only in medium-sized nuclei, including argon, but also in deuterium and hydrogen targets, indicating mismodeled hadronic physics. Several directions for possible improvement are discussed., Comment: 22 pages, 20 figures, matches the published version

Abstract

We point out that the LDMX (Light Dark Matter eXperiment) detector design, conceived to search for sub-GeV dark matter, will also have very advantageous characteristics to pursue electron-nucleus scattering measurements of direct relevance to the neutrino program at DUNE and elsewhere. These characteristics include a 4-GeV electron beam, a precision tracker, electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters with near 2$\pi$ azimuthal acceptance from the forward beam axis out to $\sim$40$^\circ$ angle, and low reconstruction energy threshold. LDMX thus could provide (semi)exclusive cross section measurements, with detailed information about final-state electrons, pions, protons, and neutrons. We compare the predictions of two widely used neutrino generators (GENIE, GiBUU) in the LDMX region of acceptance to illustrate the large modeling discrepancies in electron-nucleus interactions at DUNE-like kinematics. We argue that discriminating between these predictions is well within the capabilities of the LDMX detector., Comment: 16 pages, 10 figures; updated to match the published version

Abstract

Martini et al. [Phys. Rev. C 94, 015501 (2016)] recently observed that when the produced-lepton's mass plays an important role, the charged-current quasielastic cross section for muon neutrinos can be higher than that for electron neutrinos. Here I argue that this effect appears solely in the theoretical descriptions of nuclear effects in which nucleon knockout requires the energy and momentum transfers to lie in a narrow range of the kinematically allowed values., Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures, ancillary file, the title and text have been modified to conform to the style of Phys.

11. Nuclear effects are relevant to the calorimetric reconstruction of neutrino energy

Author

Subjects

Abstract

As the calorimetric method of neutrino-energy reconstruction is generally considered to be largely insensitive to nuclear effects, its application seems to be an effective way for reducing systematic uncertainties in oscillation experiments. To verify the validity of this opinion, we quantitatively study the sensitivity of the calorimetric energy reconstruction to the effect of final-state interactions in an ideal detector and in a realistic scenario. We find that when particles escaping detection carry away a non-negligible fraction of neutrino energy, the calorimetric reconstruction method becomes sensitive to nuclear effects which, in turn, affects the outcome of the oscillation analysis. These findings suggest that the best strategy for reduction of systematic uncertainties in future neutrino-oscillation studies---such as the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment---is to increase their sensitivity to particles of low energy. The ambitious precision goals appear also to require an extensive development of theoretical models capable of providing an accurate predictions for exclusive cross sections of well-controlled uncertainties., Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures

Abstract

Future neutrino-oscillation experiments are expected to bring definite answers to the questions of neutrino-mass hierarchy and violation of charge-parity symmetry in the lepton sector. To realize this ambitious program it is necessary to ensure a significant reduction of uncertainties, particularly those related to neutrino-energy reconstruction. In this paper, we discuss different sources of systematic uncertainties, paying special attention to those arising from nuclear effects and detector response. By analyzing nuclear effects we show the importance of developing accurate theoretical models, capable to provide quantitative description of neutrino cross sections, together with the relevance of their implementation in Monte Carlo generators and extensive testing against lepton-scattering data. We also point out the fundamental role of efforts aiming to determine detector responses in test-beam exposures., Comment: 26 pages, 10 figures

Abstract

We report the results of a study aimed at quantifying the impact on the oscillation analysis of the uncertainties associated with the description of the neutrino-nucleus cross section in the two-particle--two-hole sector. The results of our calculations, based on the kinematic method of energy reconstruction and carried out comparing two data-driven approaches, show that the existing discrepancies in the neutrino cross sections have a sizable effect on the extracted oscillation parameters, particularly in the antineutrino channel., Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures

14. Improved estimate of the cross section for inverse beta decay

Abstract

The hypothesis of the conserved vector current, relating the vector weak and isovector electromagnetic currents, plays a fundamental role in quantitative description of neutrino interactions. Despite being experimentally confirmed with great precision, it is not fully implemented in existing calculations of the cross section for inverse beta decay, the dominant mechanism of antineutrino scattering at energies below a few tens of MeV. In this article, I estimate the corresponding cross section and its uncertainty, ensuring conservation of the vector current. While converging to previous calculations at energies of several MeV, the obtained result is appreciably lower and predicts more directional positron production near the reaction threshold. These findings suggest that in the current estimate of the flux of geologically produced antineutrinos the 232Th and 238U components may be underestimated by 6.1 and 3.7%, respectively. The proposed search for light sterile neutrinos using a 144Ce--144Pr source is predicted to collect the total event rate lower by 3% than previously estimated and to observe a spectral distortion that could be misinterpreted as an oscillation signal. In reactor-antineutrino experiments, together with a re-evaluation of the positron spectra, the predicted event rate should be reduced by 0.9%, diminishing the size of the reported anomaly., Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure

Abstract

To be able to achieve their physics goals, future neutrino-oscillation experiments will need to reconstruct the neutrino energy with very high accuracy. In this work, we analyze how the energy reconstruction may be affected by realistic detection capabilities, such as energy resolutions, efficiencies, and thresholds. This allows us to estimate how well the detector performance needs to be determined a priori in order to avoid a sizable bias in the measurement of the relevant oscillation parameters. We compare the kinematic and calorimetric methods of energy reconstruction in the context of two muon-neutrino disappearance experiments operating in different energy regimes. For the calorimetric reconstruction method, we find that the detector performance has to be estimated with a ~10% accuracy to avoid a significant bias in the extracted oscillation parameters. On the other hand, in the case of kinematic energy reconstruction, we observe that the results exhibit less sensitivity to an overestimation of the detector capabilities., Comment: 16 pages, 14 figures, matches the version published in Phys.

Abstract

In the next generation of long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments, aiming to determine the charge-parity violating phase $\delta_{CP}$ in the appearance channel, fine-grained time-projection chambers are expected to play an important role. In this Letter, we analyze an influence of realistic detector capabilities on the $\delta_{CP}$ sensitivity for a setup similar to that of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment. We find that the effect of the missing energy, carried out by undetected particles, is sizable. Although the reconstructed neutrino energy can be corrected for the missing energy, the accuracy of such procedure has to exceed 20\%, to avoid a sizable bias in the extracted $\delta_{CP}$ value., Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures. v2 matches the version published in PRD

Abstract

One of the largest sources of systematic uncertainties in ongoing neutrino-oscillation measurements is the description of nuclear effects. Its considerable reduction is expected thanks to the dedicated studies of (anti)neutrino-nucleus interactions in the MINERvA experiment. In this article, the calculations within the spectral function approach are compared to the charged-current quasielastic cross sections reported from MINERvA. The obtained results show that the effect of final-state interactions on the (anti)muon kinematics plays pivotal role in reproducing the experimental data., Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures

Abstract

Free nucleons propagating in water are known to produce gamma rays, which form a background to the searches for diffuse supernova neutrinos and sterile neutrinos carried out with Cherenkov detectors. As a consequence, the process of nucleon knockout induced by neutral-current quasielastic interactions of atmospheric (anti)neutrinos with oxygen needs to be under control at the quantitative level in the background simulations of the ongoing and future experiments. In this paper, we provide a quantitative assessment of the uncertainty associated with the theoretical description of the nuclear cross sections, estimating it from the discrepancies between the predictions of different models., Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures

Abstract

We report the results of a theoretical study of quasielastic electron and neutrino interactions with carbon. Our approach takes into account the effects of final-state interactions between the struck nucleon and the residual nucleus, neglected in the impulse approximation, through a generalization of the spectral function formalism. The calculated electron-scattering cross sections turn out to be in very good agreement with the available data over a broad kinematical region. The impact of nuclear effects on the reconstruction of neutrino energy in charged-current quasielastic processes is also studied, and the results of our approach are compared to the predictions of the relativistic Fermi gas model, routinely employed in most Monte Carlo simulations. Finally, we discuss the limitations of the existing procedure for energy reconstruction and propose a new, improved, one. At energy ~600 MeV, we observe a sizable difference between neutrino and antineutrino scattering, important for the measurements of charge-parity symmetry violation. Our analysis suggests that a reliable determination of neutrino energy can only be obtained from models validated by a systematic comparison to the available electron-scattering data., Comment: 11 pages, 6 figures, additional comparisons to electron scattering data are provided in the ancillary file, in the current version we have substantially extended discussion of predictions for neutrino scattering

Abstract

The ongoing and future searches for diffuse supernova neutrinos and sterile neutrinos carried out with large water-Cherenkov detectors require a precise determination of the backgrounds, especially those involving gamma rays. Of great importance, in this context, is the process of neutron knockout through neutral-current scattering of atmospheric neutrinos on oxygen. Nuclear reinteractions of the produced neutron may in fact lead to the production of gamma rays of energies high enough to mimic the processes of interest. In this Letter, we focus on the kinematical range suitable for simulations of atmospheric-neutrino interactions and provide the neutron-knockout cross sections computed using the formalism based on realistic nuclear spectral function. The role of the strange-quark contribution to the neutral-current axial form factor is also analyzed. Based on the available experimental information, we give an estimate of the associated uncertainty., Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, the numerical results are provided in a tabulated form in the ancillary file

Abstract

Good understanding of the cross sections for (anti)neutrino scattering off nuclear targets in the few-GeV energy region is a prerequisite for the correct interpretation of results of ongoing and planned oscillation experiments. To clarify a possible source of disagreement between recent measurements of the cross sections on carbon, we analyze the available data within an approach based on the realistic spectral function of carbon, treating neutral-current elastic (NCE) and charged-current quasielastic (CCQE) processes on equal footing. We show that the axial mass from the shape analysis of the MiniBooNE data is in good agreement with the results reported by the BNL E734 and NOMAD Collaborations. However, the combined analysis of the NCE and CCQE data does not seem to support the contribution of multinucleon final states being large enough to explain the normalization of the MiniBooNE-reported cross sections., Comment: Proceedings of NuInt12, 22-27 October 2012, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Abstract

Background: Good understanding of the cross sections for (anti)neutrino scattering off nuclear targets in the few-GeV energy region is a prerequisite for correct interpretation of results of ongoing and planned oscillation experiments. Purpose: Clarify possible source of disagreement between recent measurements of the cross sections on carbon. Method: Nuclear effects in (anti)neutrino scattering off carbon nucleus are described using the spectral function approach. The effect of two- and multi-nucleon final states is accounted for by applying an effective value of the axial mass, fixed to 1.23 GeV. Neutral-current elastic (NCE) and charged-current quasielastic (CCQE) processes are treated on equal footing. Results: The differential and total cross sections for the energy ranging from a few hundreds of MeV to 100 GeV are obtained and compared to the available data from the BNL E734, MiniBooNE, and NOMAD experiments. Conclusions: Nuclear effects in NCE and CCQE scattering seem to be very similar. Within the spectral function approach, the axial mass from the shape analysis of the MiniBooNE data is in good agreement with the results reported by the BNL E734 and NOMAD Collaborations. However, the combined analysis of NCE and CCQE data does not seem to support the contribution of multi-nucleon final states being large enough to explain the normalization of the MiniBooNE-reported cross sections., Comment: 14 pages, 9 figures, detailed discussion of the role of FSI is added

Abstract

We discuss the convergence of the expansion of the nuclear electroweak current in powers of |k|/M, where M is the nucleon mass and k denotes either the momentum transfer or the momentum of the struck nucleon. We have computed the electron and neutrino scattering cross sections off uniform nuclear matter at equilibrium density using correlated wave functions and the cluster expansion formalism. The results of our work suggest that the proposed approach provides accurate estimates of the measured electron scattering cross sections. On the other hand, the description of the current based on the widely used leading-order approximation does not appear to be adequate, even at momentum transfer as low as 300 MeV., Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures

The results of our analysis suggest that these discrepancies are likely to be ascribable to both the breakdown of the impulse approximation and the limitations of the Fermi gas description.

An experimental observation of proton decay would be a spectacular proof of grand unification. Currently, the best constraint on the proton lifetime for the p->e+ pi0 decay channel, coming from the Super-Kamiokande experiment, reaches 8*10^33 years. To improve the measurement, much bigger detectors should be constructed. Moreover, a better description of the bound-nucleon states and of the propagation of the proton-decay products through nuclear matter have to be developed. In this article special attention is paid to the argon nucleus because a liquid argon detector is a promising candidate for the future large apparatus., Comment: Presented at the Zakopane Conference on Nuclear Physics, Zakopane, Poland, September 1--7, 2008

Abstract

Precise knowledge of the cross sections for neutrino interactions with nuclei is important not only for existing experiments but also for development of future detectors. When momentum transferred to the nucleus by the probe is high enough, the impulse approximation is valid, i.e. the nucleus can be described as composed of independent nucleons and the interaction happens between neutrino and a single bound nucleon. The cross section of the nucleus is then expressed as an integral of the free cross section (modified by the off-shell effect) folded with the so-called spectral function, describing the distribution of nucleon momenta and energies. I present results obtained for the approximate spectral functions of argon and calcium. The accuracy of the approach is verified by comparison with a broad spectrum of precise electron-scattering data for the calcium target. Some of these data lie in the kinematical region corresponding to neutrino interactions what indirectly shows that a similar level of accuracy is achieved for neutrinos. The calculated Ar(nu_mu,mu) cross section is significantly lower than the one predicted within the Fermi gas model., Comment: 3 pages and 2 figures. Supplementary material to Phys. Rev.

29. Breakdown of the impulse approximation and its consequences: the low-Q^2 problem

Abstract

Neutrino scattering data and the standard calculations of the cross section show a discrepancy in the low-Q^2 (four-momentum transfer squared) region. The calculations rely on the assumption, called the impulse approximation, that the nucleus the neutrino scatters off can be described as a collection of independent nucleons and therefore only one nucleon takes part in the interaction. It is known from electron scattering that such picture is valid only when transferred momentum |q|>400 MeV/c. For lower |q|'s, the nucleus is probed with a lower spatial resolution and a few nucleons are involved in the scattering, so the use of the impulse approximation is unjustified. It means that the standard calculations of the cross sections are unreliable for |q|<400 MeV/c. I show that the contribution of low-momentum interactions to the quasielastic neutrino cross section cannot be reduced below ~19% by any selection of the beam energy in the few-GeV region. Moreover, low-Q^2 neutrino events happen only when transferred momentum is low too. Hence the discrepancy in the low-Q^2 region is caused by the inappropriate description of low-|q| interactions in the models commonly used in Monte Carlo simulations., Comment: 3 pages, 2 figures, and 2 tables, presented at 10th International Workshop on Neutrino Factories, Super beams and Beta beams (NuFact08), Valencia, Spain, 30.06-5.07.2008

Abstract

This article is aimed at improving the description of lepton-nucleus interactions in the sub-GeV energy range. Approximate spectral functions for oxygen, calcium, and argon are constructed and used to obtain the electron cross sections in a given scattering angle. Comparison with a sample of available experimental data shows satisfactory agreement. Discrepancy between the presented model and the systematic computations available for oxygen [O. Benhar et al., Phys. Rev. D 72, 053005 (2005)] is also found to be very small. Analysis of appropriate kinematical regions leads to the conclusion that the obtained argon spectral function should describe well neutrino scattering in the 800-MeV energy region. Several approximations used in the model are critically reviewed. All the details needed to implement the presented approach in Monte Carlo simulations are given., Comment: 16 pages, 16 figures, 4 tables; real part of the optical potential included in description of final-state interactions

Abstract

The spectral functions for calcium and argon are constructed. It is verified that their predictions for the quasielastic electron-nucleus cross sections in the energy range ~1 GeV agree with the data. The argon spectral function is then used to obtain the quasielastic neutrino-nucleus cross section., Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures, presented at 5th International Workshop on Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions in the Few-GeV Region (NuInt07), Fermilab, USA, 30.05-3.06.2007

Abstract

The ICARUS and future liquid argon neutrino experiments generate demand for evaluating the spectral function of argon. In this paper we use oxygen nucleus as a testing ground for our phenomenological approach to the spectral function and probe the influence of momentum distribution and treatment of the mean field spectral function on the differential cross sections. The obtained model reproduces very well results of the exact spectral function of oxygen and can be applied to heavier nuclei, such as calcium or argon., Comment: Presented at the XX Max Born Symposium ``Nuclear effects in neutrino interactions'', Wroclaw, Poland, December 7--10, 2005

Abstract

The argon spectral function is constructed and applied to neutrino-argon cross section computations in the plane wave impulse approximation with the Pauli blocking final state interaction effect taken into account. The approximations of the construction method are critically analyzed using the example of oxygen for which more detailed computations are available. An effective description of nucleus based on the information contained in a spectral function is proposed. It is demonstrated that its predictions are close to those obtained from the complete spectral function. The effective description can be easily applied in Monte Carlo event generators., Comment: 10 pages, 14 figures

34. High-energy limit of neutrino quasielastic cross section

Abstract

It's a common knowledge that the quasielastic neutrino-neutron and antineutrino-proton cross sections tend to the same constant as (anti)neutrino energy becomes high. In this paper we calculate the exact expression of the limit in terms of the parameters describing quasielastic scattering. We check that even at very high energies only small absolute values of the four-momentum transfer contribute to the cross section, hence the Fermi theory can be applied. The dipole approximation of the form factors allows to perform analytic calculations. Obtained results are neutrino-flavour independent., Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures

Abstract

This document presents the Conceptual Design Report (CDR) put forward by an international neutrino community to pursue the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment at the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF/DUNE), a groundbreaking science experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies and for neutrino astrophysics and nucleon decay searches. The DUNE far detector will be a very large modular liquid argon time-projection chamber (LArTPC) located deep underground, coupled to the LBNF multi-megawatt wide-band neutrino beam. DUNE will also have a high-resolution and high-precision near detector.

Abstract

Future neutrino-oscillation experiments are expected to bring definite answers to the questions of neutrino-mass hierarchy and violation of charge-parity symmetry in the lepton sector. To realize this ambitious program it is necessary to ensure a significant reduction of uncertainties, particularly those related to neutrino-energy reconstruction. In this review, we discuss different sources of systematic uncertainties, paying special attention to those arising from nuclear effects and detector response. By analyzing nuclear effects we show the importance of developing accurate theoretical models, capable to provide quantitative description of neutrino cross sections, together with the relevance of their implementation in Monte Carlo generators and extensive testing against lepton-scattering data. We also point out the fundamental role of efforts aiming to determine detector responses in test-beam exposures.

Abstract

The electron scattering has been a vital tool to study the properties of the target nucleus for over five decades. Though, the particular interest on 40Ar nucleus stemmed from the progress in the accelerator-based neutrino-oscillation experiments. The complexity of nuclei comprising the detectors and their weak response turned out to be one of the major hurdles in the quest of achieving unprecedented precision in these experiments. The challenges are further magnified by the use of Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LArTPCs) in the short- (SBN) and long-baseline (DUNE) neutrino program, with almost non-existence electron-argon scattering data and hence with no empirical basis to test and develop nuclear models for 40Ar. In light of these challenges, an electron-argon experiment, E12-14-012, was proposed at Jefferson Lab. The experiment has recently successfully completed collecting data for (e,e'p) and (e,e') processes, not just on 40Ar but also on 48Ti, and 12C targets. While the analysis is running with full steam, in this contribution, we present a brief overview of the experiment.

Abstract

The interpretation of the signals detected by high precision experiments aimed at measuring neutrino oscillations requires an accurate description of the neutrino-nucleus cross sections. One of the key element of the analysis is the treatment of nuclear effects, which is one of the main sources of systematics for accelerator based experiments such as the Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE). A considerable effort is currently being made to develop theoretical models capable of providing a fully quantitative description of the neutrino-nucleus cross sections in the kinematical regime relevant to LBNE. The approach based on nuclear many-body theory and the spectral function formalism has proved very successful in explaining the available electron scattering data in a variety of kinematical conditions. The first step towards its application to the analysis of neutrino data is the derivation of the spectral functions of nuclei employed in neutrino detectors, in particular argon. We propose a measurement of the coincidence (e, e'p) cross section on argon. This data will provide the experimental input indispensable to construct the argon spectral function, thus paving the way for a reliable estimate of the neutrino cross sections. In addition, the analysis of the (e, e'p) data will help a number of theoretical developments, like the description of final-state interactions needed to isolate the initial-state contributions to the observed single-particle peaks, that is also needed for the interpretation of the signal detected in neutrino experiments. 28 pages, 4 figures, Proposal PR12-14-012 submitted to the JLAB PAC 42, July 2014

Abstract

The DUNE/LBNF program aims to address key questions in neutrino physics and astroparticle physics. Realizing DUNE’s potential to reconstruct low-energy particles in the 10–100 MeV energy range will bring significant benefits for all DUNE’s science goals. In neutrino physics, low-energy sensitivity will improve neutrino energy reconstruction in the GeV range relevant for the kinematics of DUNE’s long-baseline oscillation program. In astroparticle physics, low-energy capabilities will make DUNE’s far detectors the world’s best apparatus for studying the electron-neutrino flux from a supernova. This will open a new window to unrivaled studies of the dynamics and neutronization of a star’s central core in real time, the potential discovery of the neutrino mass hierarchy, provide new sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model, and evidence of neutrino quantum-coherence effects. The same capabilities will also provide new sensitivity to ‘boosted dark matter’ models that are not observable in traditional direct dark matter detectors.

Abstract

The DUNE/LBNF program aims to address key questions in neutrino physics and astroparticle physics. Realizing DUNE’s potential to reconstruct low-energy particles in the 10–100 MeV energy range will bring significant benefits for all DUNE’s science goals. In neutrino physics, low-energy sensitivity will improve neutrino energy reconstruction in the GeV range relevant for the kinematics of DUNE’s long-baseline oscillation program. In astroparticle physics, low-energy capabilities will make DUNE’s far detectors the world’s best apparatus for studying the electron-neutrino flux from a supernova. This will open a new window to unrivaled studies of the dynamics and neutronization of a star’s central core in real time, the potential discovery of the neutrino mass hierarchy, provide new sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model, and evidence of neutrino quantum-coherence effects. The same capabilities will also provide new sensitivity to ‘boosted dark matter’ models that are not observable in traditional direct dark matter detectors.

Abstract

This document presents the Conceptual Design Report (CDR) put forward by an international neutrino community to pursue the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment at the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF/DUNE), a groundbreaking science experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies and for neutrino astrophysics and nucleon decay searches. The DUNE far detector will be a very large modular liquid argon time-projection chamber (LArTPC) located deep underground, coupled to the LBNF multi-megawatt wide-band neutrino beam. DUNE will also have a high-resolution and high-precision near detector.
