Single pion production
Talk
The next generation of accelerator neutrino oscillation experiments will require precise neutrino cross-section measurements. Especially the neutral current neutral pion production is the biggest background for the electron neutrino appearance search. SciBooNE is ~1GeV muon neutrino and anti-neutrino scattering experiment based at Fermilab, USA. SciBooNE can reconstruct neutral pions using...

We detail the analysis involved in the measurement of neutral current single $\pi^0$ production cross sections on $\text{CH}_2$ in MiniBooNE and report our most recent measurements for both neutrino and antineutrino induced production.

We describe the development of a fitter to reconstruct $\nu_\mu$ induced Charged-Current single $\pi^0$ events in an oil Cherenkov detector (CH$_2$). These events are fit using a generic muon and two photon extended track hypothesis from a common event vertex. The development of ring finding and particle identification are described. Comparisons between data and Monte Carlo will be...
