MINERvA中微子相互作用实验

The MINERvA Neutrino Interaction Experiment

Richard Gran

摘要:

在费米实验室的NuMI束中进行的MINERvA中微子相互作用实验将测量几个GeV能量区域中中微子相互作用的几个方面。我们将使用细粒度的全活性闪烁体(CH)靶进行截面和形状因子测量,并使用由氦、碳、铁和铅制成的积分核靶研究中微子相互作用以及强子再散射的核效应。我们将改进或增加现有的测量,并解决一些对当前和即将进行的中微子振荡实验很重要的具体问题。本文报道了该探测器的设计、建造和标定的进展情况,我们预计该探测器将在2009年获得第一束中微子束。

英文摘要:

The MINERvA neutrino interaction experiment in the NuMI beam at Fermilab will measure several aspects of neutrino interactions in the few GeV energy region. We will make cross section and form factor measurements using a fine-grained fully active scintillator (CH) target, and also investigate nuclear effects on neutrino interactions as well as hadron rescattering using integral nuclear targets made of helium, carbon, iron, and lead. We will improve or add to existing measurements and address some specific questions that are important for current and upcoming neutrino oscillation experiments. This paper reports on the progress toward the design, construction, and calibration of the detector, which we expect will get its first neutrino beam in 2009.
