Title: Measurement of Final-State Correlations in Neutrino Muon-Proton Mesonless Production on Hydrocarbon at $⟨ E_{ν} ⟩ = 3 GeV$

Abstract

Final-state kinematic imbalances are measured in mesonless production of ν_μ+A→μ^-+p+X in the MINERvA tracker. Initial- and final-state nuclear effects are probed using the direction of the μ^- - p transverse momentum imbalance and the initial-state momentum of the struck neutron. Differential cross sections are compared to predictions based on current approaches to medium modeling. These models underpredict the cross section at intermediate intranuclear momentum transfers that generally exceed the Fermi momenta. As neutrino interaction models need to correctly incorporate the effect of the nucleus in order to predict neutrino energy resolution in oscillation experiments, this result points to a region of phase space where additional cross section strength is needed in current models, and demonstrates a new technique that would be suitable for use in fine-grained liquid argon detectors where the effect of the nucleus may be even larger.

Measurement of inclusive charged-current $ν_{μ}$ cross sections as a function of muon kinematics at $⟨ E_{ν} ⟩ \sim 6 GeV$ on hydrocarbon

Journal Article Ruterbories, D. ; Filkins, A. ; Ahmad Dar, Z. ; ... - Physical Review D

MINERvA presents a new analysis of inclusive charged-current neutrino interactions on a hydrocarbon target. We report single and double-differential cross sections in muon transverse and longitudinal momentum. These measurements are compared to neutrino interaction generator predictions from GENIE, NuWro, GiBUU, and NEUT. In addition, comparisons against models with different treatments of multinucleon correlations, nuclear effects, resonant pion production, and deep inelastic scattering are presented. The data recorded corresponds to 10.61 × 10²⁰ protons on target with a peak neutrino energy of approximately 6 GeV. The higher energy and larger statistics of these data extend the kinematic range for model testingmore »« less

Neutrino-Induced Coherent $π^{+}$ Production in C, CH, Fe, and Pb at $⟨ E_{ν} ⟩ \sim 6 GeV$

Journal Article Ramírez, M. A. ; Akhter, S. ; Ahmad Dar, Z. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

MINERvA has measured the ν_μ-induced coherent π⁺ cross section simultaneously in hydrocarbon (CH), graphite (C), iron (Fe), and lead (Pb) targets using neutrinos from 2 to 20 GeV. The measurements exceed the predictions of the Rein-Sehgal and Berger-Sehgal PCAC based models at multi-GeV ν_μ+ energies and angles, E_π > 1 GeV and θ_π < 10°. Measurements of the cross-section ratios of Fe and Pb relative to CH reveal the effective A scaling to increase from an approximate A^1/3 scaling at few GeV to an A^2/3 scaling for E_ν >10 GeV.

Single neutral pion production by charged-current ${\bar{ν}}_{μ}$ interactions on hydrocarbon at $〈 E_{ν} 〉 = 3.6 GeV$

Journal Article Le, T. ; Palomino, J. L. ; Aliaga, L. ; ... - Physics Letters. B

We studied single neutral pion production via muon antineutrino charged-current interactions in plastic scintillator (CH) using the MINERvA detector exposed to the NuMI low-energy, wideband antineutrino beam at Fermilab. Measurement of this process constrains models of neutral pion production in nuclei, which is important because the neutral-current analog is a background for appearance oscillation experiments. Furthermore, the differential cross sections for π⁰ momentum and production angle, for events with a single observed π⁰ and no charged pions, are presented and compared to model predictions. These results comprise the first measurement of the π⁰ kinematics for this process.

Measurement of the $ν_{e}$ -Nucleus Charged-Current Double-Differential Cross Section at $⟨ E_{ν} ⟩ = 2.4 GeV$ Using NOvA

Journal Article Acero, M. A. ; Adamson, P. ; Aliaga, L. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

The inclusive electron neutrino charged-current cross section is measured in the NOvA near detector using 8.02 x 10²⁰ protons-on-target (POT) in the NuMI beam. The sample of GeV electron neutrino interactions is the largest analyzed to date and is limited by ≃ 17% systematic rather than the ≃ 7.4% statistical uncertainties. The double-differential cross section in final-state electron energy and angle is presented for the first time, together with the single-differential dependence on Q² (squared four-momentum transfer) and energy, in the range 1 GeV ≤ E_ν < 6 GeV. Detailed comparisons are made to the predictions of the GENIE, GiBUU,more »« less
