Abstract
Neutrino interaction cross section measurements are of high importance, in improving understanding for both oscillation measurements and nuclear modelling. The T2K experiment features a near detector complex with multiple detectors, providing multiple different nuclear targets at differing mean neutrino energies due to the off-axis configurations used. Along with constraining the flux for oscillation measurements, these near detectors provide the opportunity for a large programme of neutrino cross section measurements. Some recent such measurements are described in this proceeding.
Highlights
T2K (Tokai-to-Kamioka) [1] is a long-baseline accelerator neutrino experiment situated in Japan, designed to make precision measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters
Along with constraining the flux for oscillation measurements, these near detectors provide the opportunity for a large programme of neutrino cross section measurements
This is achieved by studying the disappearance of muon neutrinos and appearance of electron neutrinos at the far detector Super-Kamiokande, in a beam of muon neutrinos created at the J-PARC accelerator complex in Tokai
