Importance of nuclear effects in the measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters
arXiv:1010.2329 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2011.02.043
Abstract
We investigate how models for neutrino-nucleus cross sections based on different assumptions for the nuclear dynamics affect the forecasted sensitivities to neutrino oscillation parameters at future neutrino facilities. We limit ourselves to the quasi-elastic regime, where the neutrino cross sections can be evaluated with less uncertainties, and discuss the sensitivity reach to theta_{13} and the CP violation phase at a prototype low-gamma beta-beam, mostly sensitive to the quasi-elastic regime.
Error in cross section implementation corrected and sensitivities reevaluated accordingly. Relative performance of diffrent models and conclusions unchanged. Version to be published in PLB
