Analysis Strategy and Selection Procedure for $\nu_\mu$ Charged Current Inclusive Interactions using the $\pi^0$ Detector (P0D) and the Time Projection Chambers of the T2K Experiment
ORAL
Abstract
$\nu_\mu$ Charge-Current events are produced and collected by the Near Detectors (ND280) in the Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) experiment. This talk focuses on those interactions that are created in the Pi-Zero detector (P{\O}D) and whose momentum is measured by the Time Projection Chambers (TPC). The description of the analysis event selection is presented which includes Data-Quality cuts, Beam Quality parameters, and Fiducial Volume boundaries which are applied on the beginning of the P{\O}D track. In addition the matching procedure of a TPC track to a P{\O}D track and the optimization of this procedure in presented.
