Estimated flux ratio uncertainties due to beam and hadro-production
Outlined prospects for flux constraint improvements using ND data
Abstract
We present the systematic-error study of the neutrino flux in the NO{\nu}A experiment. Systematic errors on the flux at the near detector (ND), far detector (FD), and the ratio FD/ND, due to the beam-transport and hadro-production are estimated. Prospects of constraining the {\nu}{\mu} and {\nu}e flux using data from ND are outlined.
