Abstract

Utilizing a sample of νµνµ​ inclusive charged current events we select four events which visually contain ⇡0 decays associated with a neutrino interaction vertex. This sample of charged current induced ⇡0s provides us with data-driven photon showers to vet our reconstruction. The ⇡0 provides us with a standard candle to study how our shower reconstruction performs. The vertex of the interaction is determined by the start point of the long muon track in the event and the ⇡0 production point. We utilize two di↵erent methods to cluster the charge coming from these showers and reconstruct the 3D properties of the showers.
