Title: A high-statistics study of low-energy neutrino-nucleus scattering in the NuMI beam at Fermilab

Conference · · AIP Conf.Proc.842:862-864,2006
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2220404· OSTI ID:917109

The NuMI Facility at Fermilab is providing an extremely intense beam of neutrinos for the MINOS Neutrino Oscillation Experiment. It an ideal place for a high statistics (anti)neutrino-nucleon/nucleus scattering experiments, and the MINER{nu}A experiment, a collaboration of elementary-particle and nuclear physicists, is planning to install a fully active fine-grained solid scintillator detector in this beam. The overall goals of the experiment are to measure absolute exclusive cross-sections, study nuclear effects in {nu} - A interactions and perform a systematic study of the resonance-DIS transition region including the extraction of high-x Bj parton distribution functions at low Q2.
