DESCRIPTION:Neutrino physics needs experimental guidance of unprecedented 
 accuracy to help answering the many open theoretical questions present in 
 the field. I will discuss how high-intensity\, conventional neutrino beams
  are being used now to address some of these questions\, such as: Did atmo
 spheric neutrinos provide an unambiguous proof of neutrino oscillations? D
 o light sterile neutrinos exist? What can we learn about the electroweak t
 heory and the nuclear structure by studying neutrino interactions?\n The e
 xtent to which we can answer these questions depends critically on how wel
 l we think we understand these neutrino beams. I will discuss how the prec
 ise knowledge of neutrino production is in turn coupled to the precise kno
 wledge of hadron production in proton-nucleus interactions. The goal of th
 e HARP experiment at CERN is to provide the most accurate and complete pic
 ture to date on hadron production of relevance to neutrino physics. The fi
 rst physics results from HARP will be presented\, and their implications f
 or the K2K\, MiniBooNE\, and neutrino scattering experiments will be discu
 ssed.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/1456/
