Keywords: neutrino physics, non-standard interactions, neutrino cross-sections. One of the defining properties of neutrinos is their extremely feeble interaction with neutrinos.
Measurements are presented of charged-current muon neutrino scattering in the inclusive channel, the ‘0 \(\pi \)’ channel (in which no pions but some number of protons may be produced), and single pion production (including production of both charged and neutral pions). Finally, I will give a summary of the field. These are the interactions of most interest to atmospheric and acceleratorbased neutrino oscillation experiments. This article presents a review of neutrino–argon interaction measurements from the MicroBooNE and ArgoNeuT collaborations, using two LArTPC detectors that have collected data in the NuMI and Booster Neutrino Beams at Fermilab. The only ways they interact is through gravity and the weak force, which is, well, weak. In this case, the energy levels and spin states within the target nucleus have to be taken into account to estimate the probability for an interaction. This process is used in radiochemical neutrino detectors. Therefore, measurements of neutrino scattering cross sections on argon will be of particular importance to future DUNE and SBN oscillation measurements. Neutrino Interactions As electrically-neutral and un-coloured particles the only Standard Model interactions available to neutrinos are those of the weak force, as a result of which it is impossible to directly observe the path of a neutrino through a detector. Neutrinos can interact with a nucleus, changing it to another nucleus. The measured CC inclusive cross section and CCQE. Argon is a large nucleus, and nuclear effects-both on the initial and final-state particles in the interaction-are expected to be large in neutrino–argon interactions. The neutrino interaction cross sections were also measured with INGRID as presented in Chaps.7, 8 and 9. Precise modeling of neutrino interactions on argon is crucial for the success of future experiments such as the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) and the Short-Baseline Neutrino (SBN) program, which will use liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) technology.
