Description
We are entering an era of high-precision neutrino oscillation experiments (T2HK, DUNE), which potentially hold answers to some of the most exciting questions in particle physics. Their scientific program requires a precise knowledge of neutrino-nucleus interactions coming from fundamental nuclear studies. These theoretical calculations should be firstly benchmarked with electron scattering data.
In my talk I will give an overview of the recent progress that has been made in describing electron-nucleus scattering within the ab-initio coupled-cluster framework, combined with the Lorentz integral transform. These techniques open the door to obtaining electroweak nuclear responses (and consequently cross-sections) for medium-mass nuclei starting from first principles.
