NuSOnG: A High-Statistics, High-Energy Neutrino Scattering Experiment
نویسنده
چکیده
The NuSOnG experiment is a proposal for a next-generation high-statistics, high-energy neutrino scattering experiment using an external proton beam, possibly at Fermilab or CERN, to create a high-energy sign-selected neutrino beam. The NuSOnG experiment would have the potential to make much improved electroweak and QCD precision measurements along with direct searches for new physics. The precision measurements would probe the Standard Model and Beyond the Standard Model physics in the neutrino sector complementing results from LEP/SLC and new physics searches at the LHC.

First Measurement of Muon Neutrino Charged Current Quasielastic (CCQE) Double Differential Cross Section
Using a high statistics sample of muon neutrino charged current quasielastic (CCQE) events, we report the first measurement of the double differential cross section ( d 2σ dTμ d cos θμ ) for this process. The result features reduced model dependence and supplies the most complete information on neutrino CCQE scattering to date. Measurements of the absolute cross section as a function of neutrin...
متن کاملCharged-Current Interaction Measurements in MiniBooNE
Neutrino oscillation is the only known phenomenon for physics beyond the standard model. To investigate this phenomenon, the understanding of low energy neutrino scattering (200 < Eν < 2000 MeV) is the crucial task for high energy physicists. In this energy region, the charged current quasi-elastic (CCQE) neutrino interaction is the dominant process, and experiments require a precise model to p...
متن کاملPrecise measurement of neutrino and antineutrino differential cross sections
The NuTeV experiment at Fermilab has obtained a unique high-statistics sample of neutrino and antineutrino interactions using its high-energy sign-selected beam. We present a measurement of the differential cross section for charged-current neutrino and antineutrino scattering from iron. We determine the relative to cross section, r = , at high energy with errors a factor of 2 smaller than the ...
متن کاملNeutrino Cross Sections at HERA and Beyond
The sources of very high energy cosmic rays should also be sources of neutrinos. While the complete scheme of ultrahigh energy cosmic ray production is not yet understood [1], ancillary to cosmic ray production are neutrino fluxes, both at the source of the cosmic rays and through cosmic ray propagation and scattering with the microwave background. Given that neutrinos are unabsorbed and undefl...
متن کاملMINERνA: a dedicated neutrino scattering experiment at NuMI
MINERνA is a dedicated neutrino cross-section experiment planned for the NuMI beamline at Fermilab [1]. The advent of high rate neutrino beamlines designed for studies of long-baseline neutrino oscillation at the atmospheric δm, such NuMI, CNGS and J-PARC ν, opens up new potential for high rate neutrino cross-section measurements. Among those beamlines, NuMI provides the optimal combination of ...
