"Neutrino Cross-Section Measurements at SciBooNE"

Presented by Hide Tanaka, MIT

Thursday, February 18, 2010, 3:00 pm — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

ABSTRACT:
The precise measurement of neutrino-nucleus cross-sections in the few GeV energy range is an essential ingredient in the interpretation of neutrino oscillation experiments.
The SciBooNE experiment is designed to measure neutrino cross sections on carbon near one GeV. The experiment is carried out by installing the K2K SciBar detector in the FNAL Booster Neutrino Beamline. The marriage of a high rate, low energy neutrino beam and the fine granularity of SciBar detector is unique for precise measurements of neutrino cross sections.
SciBooNE ran from June 2007 until August 2008 in both neutrino and anti-neutrino mode.
We will present an overview of the SciBooNE experiment and recent results for neutrino/antineutrino interactions.
