Neutron Form Factor from Neutrino-Nucleus Coherent Elastic Scattering

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-08-13 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We analyze the prospect of measuring the neutron form factor of a nucleus through the detection of neutrino-nucleus coherent elastic scattering. We predict numbers of events in a liquid noble nuclear recoil detector at a stopped pion neutrino source. We discuss the precision required to distinguish between different theoretical models for the form factor.
