Neutrino trident scattering at near detectors

On near detectors at a neutrino factory

The geometric effects of the beam in near detectors at a neutrino factory are discussed. The refined systematics treatment, including cross section errors, flux errors and background uncertainties, is compared with the IDS-NF one. Different near detector setups are included. We also probe their effects both at the measurements of standard neutrino oscillation parameters and constraints of the n...

Coherent neutrino scattering in dark matter detectors

Neutrino Scattering at High Energies

The construction of a high energy (∼100 GeV), sign-selected neutrino beam opens exciting opportunities to search for beyond-standard-model physics as well as to make valuable QCDmeasurements. Such a beam can be produced at the Tevatron or, potentially, at the CERN SPS+. The resulting physics would be unique and complementary to the present neutrino program. Here we use neutrino-electron scatter...

Neutrino Scattering Physics at Superbeams and Neutrino Factories

Neutrino scattering physics is discussed for investigating internal structure of the nucleon and nuclei at future neutrino facilities. We explain structure functions in neutrino scattering. In particular, there are new polarized functions g3, g4, and g5, and they should provide us important information for determining internal nucleon spin structure. Next, nuclear structure functions are discus...

Future Atmospheric Neutrino Detectors

Future experiments focusing on atmospheric neutrino detection are reviewed. One of the main goals of these experiments is the detection of an unambiguous oscillation pattern (νμ reappearance) to prove the oscillation hypothesis. Further goals include the discrimination of νμ−ντ and νμ−νsterile oscillations, and the detection of a potential small νμ−νe contribution. The search for matter effects...
