Description

MINERvA is a neutrino-nucleus scattering experiment with multiple nuclear targets. The experiment is looking for reconstruct neutral pion production, in charge current and neutral current interactions. Neutral pions are detected through the 2 photons decay, then produce electromagnetic showers. We will describe how we are reconstructing and identifying electromagnetic showers. The invariant mass of the pair of photons will isolate CCPi0 events.
