Measurement of the muon-neutrino charged-current quasi-elastic cross-section in the SciBooNE experiment

Understand

SciBooNE is a neutrino and anti-neutrino cross-section experiment at Fermilab, USA.

• The SciBooNE experiment is summarised and two independent CCQE analyses are described.
• For one of the analyses, an absolute muon-neutrino CCQE cross-section in the neutrino energy region (0.6-1.6) GeV is shown and the technique developed for such a purpose is also explained.
• The total cross-section measured over this energy range agrees well with expectations, based on the NEUT event generator and using a value of 1.21 GeV for the CCQE axial mass.
