Neutrino Induced Coherent-Pion: Precision Measurement In Nomad And Uses In Oscillation Experiments, Bing Guo
Theses and Dissertations
In the era of high precision oscillation measurements, lead by DUNE and Hyper-K, the Near Detector (ND) faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities. Among the various neutrino events in ND, Coherent meson production plays a special role. It is a non-negligible background to the oscillation signal. However the cross-section models for neutrino induced Coherent meson currently being used are old and imprecise. On the other hand, Coherent meson has a simple experimental signature with minimal nuclear effect making it unique among neutrino-nucleon interactions. Furthermore, the cross section for Coherent meson is the same in neutrino and antineutrino modes. It, thus, potentially …
