TL;DR
ArgoNeuT is a Liquid Argon TPC experiment at Fermilab that collects neutrino data to measure Charged Current Quasi-Elastic cross sections and develop automated reconstruction techniques.
Contribution
This paper presents initial measurements of neutrino and anti-neutrino cross sections and introduces automated software for event reconstruction in Liquid Argon TPCs.
Findings
Collected thousands of neutrino events between 0.1 and 10 GeV.
Developed software capable of fully reconstructing muons and vertices.
Discussed initial measurements and analysis methods.
Abstract
ArgoNeuT, a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber in the NuMI beamline at Fermilab, has recently collected thousands of neutrino and anti-neutrino events between 0.1 and 10 GeV. The experiment will, among other things, measure the cross section of the neutrino and anti-neutrino Charged Current Quasi-Elastic interaction and analyze the vertex activity associated with such events. These topics are discussed along with ArgoNeuT's automated reconstruction software, currently capable of fully reconstructing the muon and finding the event vertex in neutrino interactions.
