High-quality charged current quasielastic scattering data have recently been reported for both muon neutrinos and antineutrinos from several accelerator-based neutrino experiments. Measurements from MiniBooNE were the first to indicate that more complex nuclear effects, now thought to be the result of nucleon pair correlations, may contribute to neutrino quasielastic samples at a much higher significance than previously assumed. These findings are now being tested by MINER$ u$A and other contemporary neutrino experiments. Presented here is a comparison of data from MiniBooNE and MINER$ u$A to a few example parametrizations of these nuclear effects. It has been demonstrated that such effects may bias future measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters and so this issue continues to press the neutrino community. A comparison of data over a large range of neutrino energies is one approach to exploring the extent to which such nucleon correlations may influence our understanding and subsequent modeling of neutrino quasielastic scattering.

A parameterization of the $bar pp$ differential elastic scattering cross section in the beam momentum range from 2 to 16 GeV/c is proposed. The parameterization well describes the existing data including the observed diffraction pattern at four-momen
tum transfer $|t|$ up to 1.5-2.0 GeV$^2$. It can be used for detailed calculations of the radiation load on the detectors being designed for the PANDA detector at the future FAIR facility in Darmstadt.
Current long baseline experiments aim at measuring neutrino oscillation parameters with a high precision. A critical quantity is the neutrino energy which can not be measured directly but has to be reconstructed from the observed hadrons. A good know
ledge of neutrino-nucleus interactions is thus necessary to minimize the systematic uncertainties in neutrino fluxes, backgrounds and detector responses. In particular final-state interactions inside the target nucleus modify considerably the particle yields through rescattering, charge-exchange and absorption. Nuclear effects can be described with our coupled channel GiBUU transport model where the neutrino first interacts with a bound nucleon producing secondary particles which are then transported out of the nucleus. In this contribution, we give some examples for the application of our model focusing in particular on the MiniBooNE and K2K experiments.
Absolute neutrino cross section measurements at the GeV scale are ultimately limited by the knowledge of the initial $ u$ flux. In order to evade such limitation and reach the accuracy that is needed for precision oscillation physics ($sim 1$%), subs
tantial advances in flux measurement techniques are requested. We discuss here the possibility of instrumenting the decay tunnel to identify large-angle positrons and monitor $ u_e$ production from $K^+ rightarrow e^+ u_e pi^0$ decays. This non conventional technique opens up opportunities to measure the $ u_e$ CC cross section at the per cent level in the energy range of interest for DUNE/HK. We discuss the progress in the simulation of the facility (beamline and instrumentation) and the ongoing R&D.
We report a measurement of the $ u_{mu}$-nucleus inclusive charged current cross section (=$sigma^{cc}$) on iron using data from exposed to the J-PARC neutrino beam. The detector consists of 14 modules in total, which are spread over a range of off-a
xis angles from 0$^circ$ to 1.1$^circ$. The variation in the neutrino energy spectrum as a function of the off-axis angle, combined with event topology information, is used to calculate this cross section as a function of neutrino energy. The cross section is measured to be $sigma^{cc}(1.1text{ GeV}) = 1.10 pm 0.15$ $(10^{-38}text{cm}^2/text{nucleon})$, $sigma^{cc}(2.0text{ GeV}) = 2.07 pm 0.27$ $(10^{-38}text{cm}^2/text{nucleon})$, and $sigma^{cc}(3.3text{ GeV}) = 2.29 pm 0.45$ $(10^{-38}text{cm}^2/text{nucleon})$, at energies of 1.1, 2.0, and 3.3 GeV, respectively. These results are consistent with the cross section calculated by the neutrino interaction generators currently used by T2K. More importantly, the method described here opens up a new way to determine the energy dependence of neutrino-nucleus cross sections.
Our knowledge of neutrino cross sections at the GeV scale, instrumental to test CP symmetry violation in the leptonic sector, has grown substantially in the last two decades. Still, their precision and understanding are far from the standard needed i
n contemporary neutrino physics. Nowadays, the knowledge of the neutrino cross-section at $O(10%)$ causes the main systematic uncertainty in oscillation experiments and jeopardizes their physics reach. In this paper, we envision the opportunities for a new generation of cross section experiments to be run in parallel with DUNE and HyperKamiokande. We identify the most prominent physics goals by looking at the theory and experimental limitations of the previous generation of experiments. We highlight the priorities in the theoretical understanding of GeV cross-sections and the experimental challenges of this new generation of facilities.
