NUISANCE-GENIE Validation and Sample Additions

aThe objective for this project was to use MINERvA data to tune the simulation models in order to obtain the precision needed for current and future neutrino experiments. In order to do this, the current models need to be validated and then improved. $$\#10146$$; Validation was done by recreating figures that have been used in previous publications $$\#61553$$; This was done by comparing data from the detector and the simulation model (GENIE) $$\#10146$$; Additionally, a newer version of GENIE was compared to the GENIE used for the publications to validate the new version as well as to note any improvements Another objective was to add new samples into the NUISANCE framework, which was used to compare data from the detector and simulation models. $$\#10146$$; Specifically, the added sample was the two dimensional histogram of the double differential cross section as a function of the transversal and z-direction momentum for Numu and Numubar $$\#61553$$; Was also used for validation
