Neutrino Cross Section Prospects Using the NuMI off axis at ICARUS
ORAL
Abstract
ICARUS is a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber that will serve as the Far Detector of theshort-baseline neutrino program using the Booster beamline at Fermilab, and it is located 103mrad off-axis from the NuMI beamline. The status of the PMT based trigger system on electronand muon neutrinos from NuMI will be shown, as well as prospects for cross-sectionmeasurements including electron neutrino selection and event reconstruction. Accurate neutrinocross-section measurements on argon are required for precise measurements of neutrinooscillation parameters such as CP-violation and the neutrino mass hierarchy.
