Neutrino quasi-elastic scattering measured with MINERvA

The MINERvA experiment is a high precision neutrino scattering experiment designed to improve our understanding of the neutrino-nucleus interaction. The detector will use a fully active scintillation detector to allow full event reconstruction, as well as 4He, and thin C, Fe, and Pb targets to study the nuclear dependence of the interaction. The experiment is planned to start a four year run in 2010 in the NuMI Beamline at Fermilab. The axial form factor can be extracted from quasi-elastic scattering from the different nuclear targets. A discussion of the estimated precision and systematic uncertainties will be presented.
