Description
Standard Model predictions of neutrino-nucleus scattering cross sections for neutrino energies around 1 GeV or more are needed to precisely extract neutrino oscillation parameters from future neutrino oscillation experiments such as DUNE and Hyper-Kamiokande. However, theoretical predictions are challenging due to non-perturbative physics arising from low-energy QCD interactions in nuclear systems. In this talk, I will show how lattice QCD results could be used to constrain non-perturbative physics of Standard Model. In particular, I will focus on calculations of the nucleon form factors relevant to the quasi-elastic processes and their impacts to the cross section predictions.
