Description

T2K (Tokai to Kamioka) is a Japan-based long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment designed to measure (anti)neutrino flavor oscillations. A muon (anti-)neutrino beam peaked around 0.6 GeV is produced in Tokai and directed toward the water Cherenkov far detector Super-Kamiokande (SK) located at 295 km. The ND280 is used to characterise the neutrino beam before the oscillation, and its data are used to tune the neutrino flux and cross-section models which are then used to predict the expected number of neutrinos at SK. This talk will discuss how the Near Detector contributes to the T2K neutrino oscillations analysis, including various recent improvements.
