SciNO: A measurement of neutrino-nucleus scattering in a narrow-band beam
Abstract
SciNO is a proposed experiment to deploy a fine-grained scintillator detector in front of the NO near detector to collect neutrino-nucleus scattering events in the NuMI, off-axis, narrow-band neutrino beam at Fermilab. This detector can make unique contributions to the measurement of charged- and neutral-current quasi-elastic scattering; and neutral-current π0 and photon production. These processes are important to understand for fundamental physics and as backgrounds to measurements of electron neutrino appearance oscillations.
