How to unravel early moments of the Universe with neutrinos: introduction to the PTOLEMY project

What would we give to see an even younger image of the Universe from relics of the Big Bang?  And how can one even imagine how to do that?  One of the most subtle and important discoveries in elementary particle physics was to find that the tiny neutral particles that Enrico Fermi called the neutrinos have mass.  This mass was discovered indirectly through an effect predicted by Bruno Pontecorvo, now probed to high precision by KM3Net.

Neutrino-Nucelus Interaction Physics in 1-10 GeV

Precise nuclear physics theories and models are playing an increasingly important role in neutrino physics. While this has long been recognized in low-energy neutrino experiments, recent advances in accelerator-based neutrino oscillation studies have further highlighted the importance of nuclear many-body effects. Modern experiments such as T2K and NOvA require accurate simulations of nucleon correlations, a necessity that will persist in future experiments like ORCA and IceCube-Upgrade, DUNE, and Hyper-Kamiokande.
