“…The DIS term of the inelastic differential cross section is expressed in terms of the differential cross section predicted by the Bodek-Yang model appropriately modulated in the "resonancedominance" region W < W cut so that the RES/DIS mixture in this region agrees with inclusive cross section data [62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71] and exclusive 1-pion [72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,69,81] and 2-pion [82,76] cross section data:…”

GENIE[1] is a new neutrino event generator for the experimental neutrino physics community. The goal of the project is to develop a 'canonical' neutrino interaction physics Monte Carlo whose validity extends to all nuclear targets and neutrino flavors from MeV to PeV energy scales. Currently, emphasis is on the few-GeV energy range, the challenging boundary between the non-perturbative and perturbative regimes, which is relevant for the current and near future long-baseline precision neutrino experiments using accelerator-made beams. The design of the package addresses many challenges unique to neutrino simulations and supports the full life-cycle of simulation and generator-related analysis tasks.GENIE is a large-scale software system, consisting of ∼120,000 lines of C++ code, featuring a modern object-oriented design and extensively validated physics content.

“…The flavor separation offered by the weak charged current allows a direct access to different structure functions and parton distributions inside the nucleon. However, the only available data from (anti)neutrino DIS off proton and deuterium still comes from the early bubble chamber experiments ANL [397], BNL [398], BEBC [399,400], and FNAL. In spite of the excellent experimental resolution of these bubble chamber measurements, the overall statistics is rather limited and totally insufficient for modern needs (e.g.…”

Future high-precision neutrino interaction experiments are needed to extend the current program of GeV-scale neutrino interactions and should include:1. A feasibility study of a high-statistics hydrogen or deuterium scattering experiment to supplement the currently poorly known (anti)neutrino-nucleon cross sections.2. The need for (anti)neutrino Ar scattering data in the energy range relevant for the DUNE experiment.3. The possibility of muon-based neutrino beams providing extremely accurate knowledge of the neutrino flux and an intense electron neutrino beam.• Current and future long-and short-baseline neutrino oscillation programs should evaluate and articulate what additional neutrino-nucleus interaction data is required to meet their ambitious goals and support experiments that provide this data.In addition to these general challenges facing the community, there are more specific concerns for particular topics and interaction channels. These are summarized below in the form of observations, problem description or recommendations. For a deeper insight, the reader is encouraged to consult the subsequent sections of this paper.

The new results from this work, based on 6 years of IceCube HESE showers [26][27][28][29], are an average between cross sections for ν andν, assuming equal astrophysical fluxes of each.…”

Extracting the Energy-Dependent Neutrino-Nucleon Cross Section above 10 TeV Using IceCube Showers

Neutrinos are key to probing the deep structure of matter and the high-energy Universe. Yet, until recently, their interactions had only been measured at laboratory energies up to about 350 GeV. An opportunity to measure their interactions at higher energies opened up with the detection of high-energy neutrinos in IceCube, partially of astrophysical origin. Scattering off matter inside the Earth affects the distribution of their arrival directions -from this, we extract the neutrino-nucleon cross section at energies from 18 TeV to 2 PeV, in four energy bins, in spite of uncertainties in the neutrino flux. Using six years of public IceCube High-Energy Starting Events, we explicitly show for the first time that the energy dependence of the cross section above 18 TeV agrees with the predicted softer-than-linear dependence, and reaffirm the absence of new physics that would make the cross section rise sharply, up to a center-of-mass energy √ s ≈ 1 TeV.
