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.

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 // ------------------------------------------------ id LAA29234; Wed, 4 Jul 2001 11:23:28 +0900 To: sakuda@neutrino.kek.jp, seki@neutrino.kek.jp, ishida@neutrino.kek.jp, Yoshinari.Hayato@kek.jp, itow@suketto.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp, kenzo.nakamura@kek.jp Cc: suzuki@suketto.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp From: Yoichiro Suzuki <suzuki@suketto.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp> X-Mailer: Mew version 1.93 on Emacs 19.28 / Mule 2.3 (SUETSUMUHANA) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=iso-2022-jp Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <20010704112328P.suzuki@suketto.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp> Date: Wed, 04 Jul 2001 11:23:28 +0900 Sender: Yoichiro Suzuki <suzuki@suketto.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp> X-Dispatcher: imput version 980905(IM100) Lines: 175 Minites of the "Local" OPC meeting on NuInt Workshop (Sakuda, Suzuki and Seki) July-3rd, 2001 @KEK ----------- Jobs to do: ----------- Note: I have added Itow_san`s job, since he is a secretary. 1) Announcement to Organizing and Program Committee: To Lipari ---> YS will send invitation Others are OK 2) Announcement to Sientific Advisory Committee: YS will send example of the invitation to Seki_san, and Seki_san add the main text and send us again.
