Neutrino–Nucleus Interactions in the Standard Model and Beyond

Accurate predictions of neutrino–nucleus interaction cross-sections are essential for current and upcoming precision neutrino experiments, but right now these predictions suffer from large uncertainties. Reducing these uncertainties is highly desirable to maximally exploit the data from current and future neutrino experiments, and in addition, will improve our understanding of hadronic and nuclear structure.
As modern neutrino experiments cover a vast range of energies, from MeV to EeV, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, different regimes need to be disentangled and treated separately. The goal of this scientific program is to discuss progress in this endeavor and its implications for particle physics and astrophysics.
The topics we plan to discuss include, but are not limited to: quasi-elastic scattering, two-particle–two-hole events, resonance production, deep-inelastic scattering, Monte Carlo event generators, connections to astrophysics, and relevance for physics beyond the Standard Model.
