Coherent 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 کاملCoherent 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 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 کاملNuclear model effects in Charged Current neutrino–nucleus quasielastic scattering
The quasielastic scattering of muon neutrinos on oxygen 16 and carbon 12 targets is studied for neutrino energies between 200 MeV and 1 GeV, using the relativistic Fermi gas and a relativistic shell model. Final state interactions are included within the distorted wave impulse approximation. The different models are then employed to compute the inclusive charged–current quasielastic cross secti...
