摘要:

对高精度测量中微子振荡的实验所探测到的信号的解释需要精确描述中微子-核的截面。分析的关键要素之一是核效应的处理,这是基于加速器的实验,如长基线中微子实验(LBNE)的系统学的主要来源之一。目前正在作出相当大的努力,以发展理论模型,能够提供一个完整的定量描述的中微子核截面的运动学制度相关的LBNE。基于核多体理论和谱函数形式主义的方法已被证明是非常成功的解释在各种运动学条件下的电子散射数据。第一步,对它的应用程序的中微子数据的分析是中微子探测器,特别是氩原子核的光谱函数的推导。我们提出了一种测量氩原子上符合$(e,e^\prime p)$截面的方法。这些数据将为构建氩光谱函数提供不可或缺的实验输入,从而为中微子截面的可靠估计铺平道路。此外,对$(e,e^\prime p)$数据的分析将有助于许多理论的发展,比如描述终态相互作用,以分离出初始态对观察到的单粒子峰的贡献,这也是解释中微子实验中检测到的信号所需要的。

英文摘要:

The interpretation of the signals detected by high precision experiments aimed at measuring neutrino oscillations requires an accurate description of the neutrino-nucleus cross sections. One of the key element of the analysis is the treatment of nuclear effects, which is one of the main sources of systematics for accelerator based experiments such as the Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE). A considerable effort is currently being made to develop theoretical models capable of providing a fully quantitative description of the neutrino-nucleus cross sections in the kinematical regime relevant to LBNE. The approach based on nuclear many-body theory and the spectral function formalism has proved very successful in explaining the available electron scattering data in a variety of kinematical conditions. The first step towards its application to the analysis of neutrino data is the derivation of the spectral functions of nuclei employed in neutrino detectors, in particular argon. We propose a measurement of the coincidence $(e,e^\prime p)$ cross section on argon. This data will provide the experimental input indispensable to construct the argon spectral function, thus paving the way for a reliable estimate of the neutrino cross sections. In addition, the analysis of the $(e,e^\prime p)$ data will help a number of theoretical developments, like the description of final-state interactions needed to isolate the initial-state contributions to the observed single-particle peaks, that is also needed for the interpretation of the signal detected in neutrino experiments.
