Two-body current and axial form factor effects in charged-current quasielastic neutrino-nucleus scattering within the NEUT event generator
T. Franco-Munoz, J. McKean, J. García-Marcos +4
We present a charged-current quasielastic neutrino-nucleus scattering model based on an unfactorized representation of the spectral function, employing relativistic momentum distri…
Electron-induced single-pion production to constrain the neutron structure in Ar. A proof of concept
J. García-Marcos, M. Hooft, T. Franco-Munoz +5
We study electron-induced single-pion production as a way to constrain the neutron structure of Ar, information that is necessary for neutrino experiments using argon detect…
Design and commissioning of the miniBELEN neutron counter for the study of reactions
Nil Mont-Geli, Ariel Tarifeño-Saldivia, Max Pallàs +27
The miniBELEN detector is a moderated neutron counter based on the use of He tubes and high-density polyethylene as moderator. The detector has been designed to have a neutron…
Mapping intratumoral heterogeneity through PET-derived washout and deep learning after proton therapy
Pablo Cabrales, David Izquierdo-García, Víctor V. Onecha +4
The distribution of produced isotopes during proton therapy can be imaged with Positron Emission Tomography (PET) to verify dose delivery. However, biological washout, driven by ti…
Implementation of a relativistic distorted wave impulse approximation model into the NEUT event generator
J. McKean, R. González-Jiménez, M. Kabirnezhad +2
We describe the implementation of a model for charged-current quasi-elastic (CCQE) neutrino-nucleus scattering in the NEUT Monte Carlo event generator. This model employs relativis…
Activation measurements of an iodinated contrast media for online range verification in proton therapy
A. Espinosa-Rodriguez, V. V. Onecha, V. M. Nouvilas +6
The use of contrast agents has previously been proposed as a novel method to increase the activation close to the Bragg peak, aiming to improve the quality of proton range monitori…
Towards a more complete description of nucleon distortion in lepton-induced single-pion production at low-
J. García-Marcos, T. Franco-Munoz, R. González-Jiménez +3
Theoretical predictions for lepton-induced single-pion production (SPP) on C are revisited in order to assess the effect of different treatments of the current operator. On…
Relativistic two-body currents for one-nucleon knockout in electron-nucleus scattering
T. Franco-Munoz, J. García-Marcos, R. González-Jiménez +1
We present a detailed study of the contribution from two-body currents to the one-nucleon knockout process induced by electromagnetic interaction. The framework is a relativistic m…
Commissioning of miniBELEN-10A, a moderated neutron counter with a flat efficiency for thick-target neutron yields measurements
N Mont-Geli, A Tarifeño-Saldivia, L M Fraile +40
miniBELEN-10A is a modular and transportable moderated neutron counter with a nearly flat detection efficiency up to 8 MeV. The detector was designed to carry out measurements of (…
Assessing the theory-data tension in neutrino-induced charged pion production: the effect of final-state nucleon distortion
Alexis Nikolakopoulos, Raúl González-Jiménez, Natalie Jachowicz +1
Pion production on nuclei constitutes a significant part of the total cross section in experiments involving few-GeV neutrinos. Combined analyses of data on deuterium and heavier n…
Electron Scattering and Neutrino Physics
A. M. Ankowski, A. Ashkenazi, S. Bacca +50
A thorough understanding of neutrino-nucleus scattering physics is crucial for the successful execution of the entire US neutrino physics program. Neutrino-nucleus interaction cons…
Benchmarking intra-nuclear cascade models for neutrino scattering with relativistic optical potentials
Alexis Nikolakopoulos, Raúl González-Jiménez, Natalie Jachowicz +3
The description of final-state interactions (FSI) in the large phase space probed in neutrino experiments poses a great challenge. In neutrino experiments, which operate under semi…
Electron versus muon neutrino induced cross sections in charged current quasi-elastic processes
Alexis Nikolakopoulos, Natalie Jachowicz, Nils Van Dessel +4
Differences between and quasielastic cross sections are essential in neutrino oscillation analyses and CP violation searches for experiments such as DUNE and T2HK. The…
