Description

The charged pion production by neutrinos interacting on heavy nuclei is of great interest to high energy and nuclear physics and increasingly important for neutrino oscillation experiments. MINERvA is a few GeV neutrino-nucleus scattering experiment that employs a fine grained detector running in the NuMi neutrino beam at Fermilab. We present a measurement of the differential cross-sections for muon-neutrino charged current charged pion production in the MINERvA active plastic target.
