Y.Kurimoto
TL;DR
This paper reports a measurement of neutral current neutral pion production on carbon using a neutrino beam at around 1.16 GeV, providing data that supports existing theoretical models.
Contribution
First measurement of NC neutral pion production cross section ratio on carbon at few-GeV energies using a neutrino beam.
Findings
Measured cross section ratio: (7.7+-0.5(stat)+0.4-0.5(sys)) x 10^-2
Results agree with Rein-Sehgal model predictions
Provides valuable data for neutrino interaction models
Abstract
The SciBooNE Collaboration has measured neutral current neutral pion production by the muon neutrino beam at a polystyrene target (C8H8). We obtained (7.7+- 0.5(stat.)+0.4-0.5 (sys.)) x 10^-2 as cross section ratio of the neutral current neutral pion production to total charged current cross section at the mean neutrino energy of 1.16 GeV. This result is consistent with the Monte Carlo prediction based on the Rein-Sehgal model
