Status of the MINERνA experiment at Fermi National Laboratory

  • 1. Department of Astronomy and Physics, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh (United States)

Description

MINERνA is a detector designed to precisely study ν-nucleus interactions in the 1-12 GeV energy range in NuMI high-intensity neutrino beam at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. MINERνA will improve our knowledge of neutrino cross sections at low energy and low Q2, and of the A-dependence in interactions. These data will interesting in their own right, and will be important to reduce systematic errors in oscillation experiments. Preliminary results for anti-neutrino Charged Current Quasi-Elastic interactions are presented.
