A Hadronization Model for Few-GeV Neutrino Interactions
read the original abstract
We present a detailed description of a new hadronic multiparticle production model for use in neutrino interaction simulations. Its validity spans a wide invariant mass range starting from pion production threshold. This model focuses on the low invariant mass region which is probed in few-GeV neutrino interactions and is of particular importance to neutrino oscillation experiments using accelerator and atmospheric fluxes. It exhibits reasonable agreement with a wide variety of experimental data. We also describe measurements that can be made in upcoming experiments that can improve modeling in areas where uncertainties are currently large.

Comparisons of triple-differential cross sections for quasielastic-like $\nu_\mu$-hydrocarbon interactions using $\langle E_\nu\rangle \sim$ 3~GeV versus $\sim$ 6~GeV beams in MINERvA
MINERvA compares quasielastic-like cross sections at two neutrino beam energies and finds discrepancies pointing to overestimated final state interactions for protons and pions.

The role of final-state interaction modeling in neutrino energy reconstruction and oscillation measurements
Realistic variations in final-state interaction modeling can distort reconstructed neutrino energy spectra in DUNE-like experiments by amounts comparable to or exceeding those from changes in Δm²₃₂ or δ_CP, creating a...
