      Charged-current muon-neutrino cross-section measurements in the near detector of the T2K experiment 1h

      This seminar will concentrate to provide overview of recent results and current activities directed to some neutrino cross-section measurements which are studied in the near detector of the T2K experiment. Near detector located about 280m from neutrino production point ensures large statistics of accumulated neutrino interactions thanks to large flux of neutrinos which pass the detector. Results of recently published analysis of inclusive muon-neutrino charged current cross-section on carbon for 4pi coverage will be discussed. Also results of analysis which is dedicated to study events with reconstructed proton tracks will be discussed. This analysis is sensitive to nuclear effects in muon-neutrino scattering on hydrocarbon target. Expected update of those analysis in the new near detector system will be discussed, which is planned to be designed, tested and build before 2020.
