This is a seminar in the Fundamental Particles and Interaction (FPI) Seminar Series.
ABSTRACT
Interactions of neutrinos and antineutrinos with nuclear material are an essential ingredient in current and future accelerator based determinations of neutrino oscillation physics. However, recent effort on neutrino nucleus interactions pose a series of open theoretical and experimental questions. This talk will describe the current state of neutrino interactions, unique challenges of measurements and theory, and the impact on neutrino physics programs worldwide.
