DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Rik Gran (University of Minnesota Duluth)\n\nIn a re
 cent paper in Nature\, the MINERvA neutrino cross section experiment prese
 nted a measurement of the axial form factor of the nucleon using anti-neu
 trino reactions on protons (hydrogen nuclei).  This is the first new nucl
 eon data since the 1980’s bubble chamber measurements that used neutrino
  + neutron (in deuterium) reactions.  Phenomenological nucleon form facto
 rs are essential information for two customers.  They are used in the cal
 culation of the baseline event rates for neutrino + nucleus interactions u
 sed in the search of other phenomena\, such as neutrino oscillation parame
 ters and CP violation.  They can also be calculated using lattice QCD tec
 hniques\, where calculations may in principle be more precise than the exi
 sting measurements.  This talk will split between celebrating the 50 year
  history of the deuterium measurements and describing the new MINERvA meas
 urement\, with implications for current and upcoming neutrino experiments
  such as T2K\, NOvA\, SBN\, HyperK\, and DUNE.\nhttps://cern.zoom.us/j/615
