MINERvA: a dedicated neutrino scattering experiment at NuMI

Abstract

MINERvA is a dedicated neutrino cross-section experiment planned for the near detector hall of the NuMI neutrino beam at Fermilab. I summarize the detector design and physics capabilities of the experiment.

Comments: to appear in the proceedings of the Fourth International Workshop on Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions in the Few-GeV Region (NuInt05)
