Description

Reliable modeling of neutrino–nucleus interactions is essential for oscillation experiments. In this poster, I present recent upgrades to the quasielastic channel in NuWro Monte Carlo event generator, which is the dominant contribution to cross sections in experiments such as MicroBooNE and T2K. The developments focus on modified description of the nuclear ground state beyond simplistic Fermi-gas models, embedding spectral function and Wigner function approaches - together with a consistent and improved treatment of inclusive and exclusive final-state interactions. The impact of these advances is tested against inclusive electron-scattering data and MicroBooNE exclusive measurements. All updates are included in the latest public release, NuWro 25.11.
