Description

The Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) delivers an intense muon neutrino beam in an energy range of 2-20 GeV. A well known neutrino flux is crucial to make absolute cross sections in experiments like Minerva. Several techniques are currently using to constraint the flux and one of then is to use the existing external hadron production data to reduce the NuMI hadron production uncertainties by tuning our Monte Carlo. In this presentation I will be focused on our current effort on this topic.
