Abstract

The MicroBooNE experiment is an 85 ton active mass liquid-argon time projection chamber located at the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beamline. MicroBooNE’s ability to detect low-energy protons allows us to study single-proton events with a four-momentum transfer squared Q2 as low as 0.10 GeV2 . We present a differential cross-section measurement of a signal with one proton and no other particles (NC1p) in the final state. We report the flux-averaged NC1p differential cross section dσ/dT for neutrinos scattering on argon as a function of proton kinetic energy T using a subset of MicroBooNE’s data.
