Neutrino Interactions

The advent of very high intensity neutrino beams for the study of neutrino oscillations has also made possible a new generation of experiments which will study neutrino interactions on different nuclei with unprecedented precision. The use of the neutrino as a probe of nucleon structure provides unique information not available with other probes. In addition, an improved understanding of the neutrino interaction cross section and the resulting final states will reduce systematic uncertainties in neutrino oscillation experiments. A review of recent interaction measurements for neutrino energies in the energy range of 500 MeV to a few GeV will be given, with an emphasis on quasi-elastic scattering.
