Precision measurements from the NOMAD experiment

TL;DR

The NOMAD experiment collected extensive neutrino data to measure the weak mixing angle with high precision and also provided measurements of neutrino cross-sections on carbon, combining large statistics with high reconstruction quality.

Contribution

This paper reports the ongoing measurement of the weak mixing angle and presents new neutrino cross-section data, leveraging NOMAD's unique data quality and volume.

Findings

Weak mixing angle targeted at 1% precision

Measurements of $ u_{}$ quasi-elastic cross-section

Neutrino Charged Current differential cross-section on carbon

Abstract

The NOMAD experiment collected unprecedent neutrino data samples, matching both the large statistics of massive calorimeters and the reconstruction quality of bubble chambers. This paper describes the determination of the weak mixing angle which is ongoing in NOMAD, with a target precision of $\sim 1%$. In addition, measurements of the $\nu_{\mu}$ quasi-elastic cross-section and of neutrino Charged Current differential cross-section on carbon are presented.
