    Dear NuInt01 Committee members, 
    
     Some of you may be still in Snowmass. Next week, others may
    go to Lepton-Photon Conference (Rome). 
    
     Y.Suzuki and I would like to ask your schedule for the next
    two weeks for a short Video meeting. We already distributed 
    the announcement to SAC (Science Advisory Committee) 
    and received mostly positive replies.
    
     We would like to hold the meeting once 
    before sending out the first bulletin to possible 
    participants. It is important that all of you agree on the
    content. If we find it difficult to have all of your
    attendance, then we ask your agreement via e-mail for those 
    who will not attend the meeting. 
    
     I do not know where you are now, Fermilab, or Snowmass.
    Please give me ISDN numbers for your Video system (I have FNAL12).
    
    Please let me know when it is possible for you to meet. 
    After Lepton-Photon Conference, all of you may go out for a
    vacation.
                                               Your preference (example)
    July 21 (Sat) Sometime 8:00-10:00 (JST)     o   8 (JST)

          The First International Workshop on Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions 
            in the few GeV region  (NuInt01)
     
          December 13(Thurs)-16(Sun), 2001 at KEK,
     
          The discovery of muon-neutrino oscillations in the atmospheric 
      neutrinos in 1998 by the Super-Kamiokande (SK) experiment has triggered 
      many proposals for neutrino oscillation experiments using conventional 
      low-energy neutrino beams for precise determination of the oscillation 
      parameters at relevant $ \Delta m^2$ regions.
         The first long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment, the K2K
      experiment, uses a neutrino beam with <E_nu> = 1.3 GeV interacting with
      the nuclei in the Super-K detector.  As the experiment collect more data,
      the contribution of the systematic error will become more significant 
      in their oscillation analysis.
         One important source of systematic errors is the uncertainty 
      in the neutrino-nucleus cross sections and subsequent nuclear effects 
      in the few GeV energy region such as Pauli Blocking, nucleon binding, 
      pion absorption, nuclear correlations, and final-state interactions.
         Furthermore, in the near future, at K2K, JHF, Fermilab/MINOS  
      and CERN/Gran Sasso, more precise knowledge of the
      neutrino-nucleus interactions in the few GeV region will
      become of vital importance.  Next generation proton-decay
      experiments must take into account the background generated 
      by the atmospheric neutrino interactions at GeV energies.  Even now,
      some analyses of the atmospheric neutrinos are influenced by the
      uncertainties associated with the neutrino-nucleus interactions.
         Since the K2K is now observing various neutrino-nucleus
     interactions with the near detectors including
     charged-current neutrino interactions with the oxygens and
      iron, and neutral-current interactions at the few GeV region,
      it would be timely to organize the first international workshop
      on this subject.
         The purpose of this workshop is to form and develop a strong
      community among nuclear and high-energy physicists in order to meet 
      the many challenges in current neutrino physics. By examining our 
      knowledge of this subject and noting where theoretical and experimental 
      expertise is needed, international effort can be more efficiently applied 
      to the problem.
         Furthermore, the precise measurements of the neutrino-nucleus
      interactions may establish a new field of nuclear physics using neutrino
      beams in addition to the study of nuclear physics using electron beams.
     
     
       Organizing Committee (Tentative):
           	D.Casper(UCI), Y.Hayato(KEK), Y.Itow (ICRR, secretary),
            P.Lipari(Rome), J.Morfin (Fermi, co-chairman), K.Nakamura (KEK),  
            A.Para(Fermi), M.Sakuda (KEK, co-chairman), R.Seki(KEK/CSUN/Caltech), 
            Y.Suzuki(ICRR, co-chairman).
     
       The topics to be discussed:
          1. Neutrino-nucleus interactions, and their relation to 
             neutrino oscillations and proton decay studies
          2. Experimental review of neutrino-nucleus interactions  
          3. Theoretical review of nuclear effects and calculations
          4. Comparison of neutrino event generators 
          5. Where are we now - where should we direct our efforts?
          6. Future experiments for precise neutrino-nucleus interactions
