Status of FNAL SciBooNE experiment
نویسنده
چکیده
SciBooNE is a new experiment at FNAL which will make precision neutrinonucleus cross section measurements in the one GeV region. These measurements are essential for the future neutrino oscillation experiments. We started data taking in the antineutrino mode on June 8, 2007, and collected 5.19×10 protons on target (POT) before the accelerator shutdown in August. The first data from SciBooNE are reported in this article.

متن کاملExperimental status of neutrino scattering physics and needed measurements
Knowledge of neutrino interactions with a nuclear target at the neutrino energy around sub-GeV is recently getting more and more important as necessary information for accelerator based neutrino oscillation experiments. A study of neutrino interactions contains rich physics of neutrinos with nucleus, and is used to reveal the properties of neutrinos in the oscillation measurements. We review th...

The SciBooNE Collaboration has measured neutral current neutral pion production by the muon neutrino beam at a polystyrene target (C8H8). We obtained (7.7± 0.5(stat.) +0.4 −0.5(sys.))× 10 −2 as cross section ratio of the neutral current neutral pion production to total charged current cross section at the mean neutrino energy of 1.16 GeV. This result is consistent with the Monte Carlo predictio...
متن کاملSearch for neutrino charged current coherent pion production at SciBooNE
Abstract. SciBooNE is a neutrino experiment measuring neutrino cross sections on carbon in the one GeV region. We have performed a search for charged current coherent pion production from muon neutrinos scattering on carbon, νμ 12C → μ−12Cπ+. No evidence for coherent pion production is observed. We set 90% confidence level upper limits on the cross section ratio of charged current coherent pion...
متن کاملThe Main Injector Particle Physics Experiment (mipp Fnal E-907) at Fermilab -status and Plans
We describe the status of the Main Injector particle production Experiment (MIPP) at Fermilab which has to date acquired 18 million events of particle interactions using (5 GeV/c-120 GeV/c) π, K and p beams on various targets. We describe plans to upgrade the data acquisition speed of MIPP to make it run 100 times faster which will enable us to obtain particle production data of unprecdented qu...
