Coherent Neutrino–Nucleus Scattering
We review coherent scattering of neutrinos on nuclei by coupling the weak currents to vector and axial-vector meson states. The couplings are obtained from known reactions, like τ–lepton and vector meson decays. We compute and present the cross sections as functions of energy and momentum transfer for various kinematic regions, including those which are relevant to oscillation experiments. The ...
متن کاملCoherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering
I describe physics potential and experimental prospects for coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS), a process which has not yet been observed. Germaniumbased detectors represent a promising technology for CEvNS experiments. I focus primarily on stopped-pion neutrino sources. 1. Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (“CEvNS”1) is ...
متن کاملObservation of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering.
The coherent elastic scattering of neutrinos off nuclei has eluded detection for four decades, even though its predicted cross section is by far the largest of all low-energy neutrino couplings. This mode of interaction offers new opportunities to study neutrino properties and leads to a miniaturization of detector size, with potential technological applications. We observed this process at a 6...
متن کاملSurprising Results for Nuclear Effects in Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions and the MINERνA Neutrino Nucleus Scattering Program
Nuclear effects of charged current deep inelastic neutrino-iron scattering have been studied in the frame-work of a χ2 analysis of parton distribution functions (PDFs). A set of iron PDFs have been extracted which are then used to compute xB j-dependent and Q2-dependent nuclear correction factors for iron structure functions which are required in global analyses of free nucleon PDFs. Upon compa...
متن کاملNeutrino Nucleus Scattering
The status of the theoretical description of the neutrino-nuclear interaction for low and intermediate energies is reviewed and its results are compared with the existing data. Particular emphasis is on C, the ingredient of liquid scintillator, and on O, the main component of the water Čerenkov detectors. First, I show that the data on the exclusive process populating the ground state of N are ...
