Description of the research topic:
"Long-baseline accelerator-based neutrino experiments are eagerly addressing fundamental questions including the search for leptonic CP violation in neutrino oscillations. Experimentally, neutrinos are detected through neutrino-nucleus interaction on target materials in the detector. For precision measurements of neutrino oscillations, uncertainties in modeling neutrino-nucleus interactions need to be controlled below the size of the neutrino oscillation effect because measured event rates depend on the neutrino interaction cross-section.
In this thesis research, a precision measurement of neutrino-nucleus cross-section will be conducted utilizing a high-intensity neutrino beam with a novel neutrino detector. The primary focus is neutrino-nucleus interaction studies with a prototype detector of the DUNE's near detector in the USA (DUNE = Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment), however, the studies utilizing J-PARC neutrino beamline with the T2K's near detector in Japan (T2K = Tokai-to-Kamioka experiment) can be conducted after consultation with the supervisor. "
Required language skills: English Further requirements: "A master's degree in physics is required. No past experience in experimental particle physics is required, but basic knowledge of particle physics is necessary.
Experience in computer programming (preferably C++ and/or Python) is preferable.
