Neutrino energy reconstruction

Via total momentum

Outgoing particles)
Sum of outgoing particles’ momenta should give us momentum of
the neutrino (assuming the nucleon is at rest – no fermi
momentum)
For QE we’ve got another formula

We also assume no fermi momentum
here and a clean QE event – muon
and proton only
Advantages and drawbacks





QE formula needs only observables associated
with muon track – but it is in principle valid only
for QE interactions
QE formula is therefore senseless for NC events –
no muon
Total momentum formula suffers from the fact
that not all the final states are visible in the
detector
Both methods are impaired by neglecting the
fermi motion of the target nucleon (this results in
some smearing of the reconstructed energy)
What particles are visible – first guess: muons,
electrons, protons, pizeros, pi charged
True (MC) vs total mom (no FSI)

All particles visible – just to show that it works
(smearing due to Fermi motion)

Wondering which are QEs and which
nonQEs on the scatterplot?
Orange dots denote ideal reconstruction
QEs
nonQEs
The large smearing here is because of Fermi motion (apart from the fact that
Nuance includes deexcitation particles in the final state but this is negligible)

QE formula works better for QE, total momentum is better for others




Ideal qsquare – from lepton vertex
Observable qsquare – from hadron vertex, assuming nucleon
doesn’t have a fermi momentum
We have to take into account additional nucleons in the hadron
vertex (calculating it in a real detector environment is a totally
different issue:-)

Tło wielopionowe



Single pi zero NC production
is the main background to
CC nu_e interactions
producing electrons
When we see a single pi
zero it doesn’t have to be a
single pion event; it can also
be a multipion event
(π0+nπ+/-), with other
(charged) pions being lowenergetic and this way
invisible to us in water
Čerenkov detector like SK
Let’s estimate how much we
miss by taking into account
only single pion events
In other words – how many
multipion events look like a
single pizero?

Čerenkov visibility criteria



To see a charged particle
in a Čerenkov detector
such as SuperK, it has to
have energy of at least 1.5
times its mass
When there are other rings
in the vicinity, the realistic
threshold is something
about 1.5*m+50MeV (we
need a distinguishable
ring)
Pi zero is always visible by
its decay into two gammas

Conclusion



4% is not a large contribution, at
least in the first phase of the
experiment
But in the phase of precise
measurements even 4% may be
significant
Measurements in ND280, perhaps in
future 2km LAr detector?
