A bit of a NUISANCE: constraining neutrino cross section systematics

Reducing neutrino cross-section systematics will be essential to reach the sensitivity goals of current and future neutrino oscillation experiments. The NUISANCE framework has been developed to specifically address this problem by providing a powerful generator tuning framework capable of making comparisons between multiple generators and a broad range of existing neutrino cross-section data. In this talk I will review the framework itself, before discussing its use within T2K to develop a comprehensive set of model uncertainties with current data. I will also highlight the limitations to this sort of approach.
