Description
T2K (Tokai to Kamioka) is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment based in Japan. The off-axis muon neutrino beam with energy peaked at ~0.6 GeV is produced at the J-PARC facilities and directed towards the near detector at 280 meters and the far detector Super-Kamiokande at 295 kilometers. A precise knowledge of neutrino interactions is essential for an accurate estimation of the oscillation parameters. After a description of the effect of interaction uncertainties on the oscillation measurements, various cross-section measurements available at the T2K near detector will be described. The techniques are constantly under development and recent interesting results will be presented.
