Description
The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND), a 112 ton liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC), is the near detector of the Short- Baseline Neutrino Program at Fermilab. Due to its proximity to the Booster Neutrino Beam target, SBND has already seen a record-breaking number of electron neutrino interactions on argon. We present preliminary results from SBND’s differential inclusive electron neutrino charged-current analysis from our first year of beam data, selecting over 2,000 interactions. This analysis will present the largest sample of electron neutrinos on argon to date, as well as the first differential cross section measurement of electron neutrinos. This poster will give an overview of the selection, cross-section extraction, and demonstrate SBND’s detector and electromagnetic shower reconstruction performance through data/MC comparisons.
