Description
In long-baseline neutrino experiments, the systematic uncertainty associated with neutrino flux remains one of the primary challenges for precision measurements. Inverse Muon Decay (IMD) has a unique characteristic since it’s a purely leptonic process and its cross-sections can be theoretically calculated with precision. We can study the IMD reactions at SND@HL-LHC and FASER by simulating neutrino interactions with GENIE3. Considering a tungsten (W184) target, the muonic neutrino fluxes for the pseudorapidity regions at SND (7.2 < η < 8.6 ) and FASERv (η ≤ 8.3) with neutrino energies up to few TeV.
