Description
In this Letter-of-Interest, we describe the important role of electron-nucleus (e−A) scattering experiments in an era when current (NOvA, T2K) and future (Hyper-Kamiokande, DUNE) accelerator-based neutrino oscillation experiments will depend on precision modeling of the corresponding neutrino-nucleus ($\nu$ − A) process to achieve their goals. The benefits also apply to other measurements which use neutrinos as signal or background in a similar energy regime, including exotic and beyond-the-Standard-Model physics searches. We briefly describe the necessity of these measurements, ongoing efforts, and potential future measurement programs at various facilities around the world.
