Abstract

Neutrino-induced neutral pion production is an important measurement for next generation neutrino oscillation experiments. Neutral current ( NC ) neutral pion production is a direct background for electron neutrino appearance experiments, while charged current ( CC ) neutral pion production affects experiments looking for muon neutrino disappearance. Located in the Booster Neutrino Beam at Fermilab, SciBooNE is a neutrino scattering experiment designed to accurately measure muon neutrino and anti-neutrino cross sections on carbon near 1 GeV neutrino energy. In this talk I will present recent SciBooNE results on neutral pion production, including the total cross section measurement for both channels relative to the CC inclusive cross section, the separation of the coherent and incoherent contributions to the NC channel, and details on neutral pion production kinematics.
