Title: A MEASUREMENT OF THE NEUTRINO NEUTRAL CURRENT π ^0 CROSS SECTION AT MiniBooNE
Author: RAAF, JENNIFER LYNNE
Description: The MiniBooNE neutrino beam and detector at Fermilab are used to study the production of neutral current π ^0 events. The cross sections for neutrino interactions with mineral oil (CH 2 ) are reported for resonantly produced and coherently produced single π ^0 events. We measure a resonant single π ^0 cross section of σ(ν μ N → ν μ N π ^0 ) = (0.0129 ± 0.0011(stat.) ± 0.0043(syst.)) ⋅ 10 -36 cm ^2 / CH 2 at a mean neutrino energy of 1.26 GeV. We measure a coherent single π ^0 cross section of σ(ν μ A → ν μ A π ^0 ) = (0.00077 ± 0.00016(stat.) ± 0.00036(syst.)) ⋅ 10 -36 cm ^2 / CH 2 at mean neutrino energy 1.12 GeV.
