چکیده
This paper gives some details of the analysis of an important component of the systematic error for the MINOS ν µ disappearance measurement. The hadronic shower energy scale has a leading role in the ∆m 2 measurement. Systematic effects in MINOS-nuclear and cross section effects STEVEN DYTMAN

An Estimate of Charge Symmetry Breaking in Nuclear Deep Inelastic Scattering
We estimate the magnitude of charge symmetry breaking effects in deep inelastic scattering from nuclei. The resulting contribution to systematic uncertainties in hadronic determinations of sin θW are found to be less than the current experimental accuracy, but may be important in the analyses of more precise future experiments. We expect the largest nuclear charge symmetry breaking effects in t...
متن کاملW Mass and Its Uncertainty from Modelling the Hadronic Final State at Lep
From 1996 up to 2000 the LEP collider at CERN has operated at center of mass energies above the production threshold for W boson pairs of approximately 160GeV. The obtained data are used to extract a preliminary W mass value of (80.450± 0.039) GeV by direct reconstruction. To a large extent the uncertainty is due to systematic effects especially in the fully hadronic decay channel W W → qq̄′ qq̄′...

متن کاملRamifications of intranuclear re-scattering in MINOS
MINOS will measure the composition of a νμ beam at two locations, 735 km apart, in an effort confirm the (atmospheric) neutrino oscillation hypothesis and measure the mixing parameters ∆m223 and sin 2 (2θ23). Oscillations will be manifested as a difference in the rate and energy spectrum of νμ−CC interactions measured in the two detectors. Because most interactions observed in MINOS are inelast...
