Neutrino Quasi-Elastic Scattering Measured with MINERvA

The MINERvA experiment is a precision neutrino experiment designed to improve our understanding of the neutrino-nucleus interation. The experiment uses a fully active scintillation detector to allow full event reconstruction, using 4He, C, Fe, and Pb targets to study the nuclear dependence of the interaction. A test run using about 20\% of the full detector, as well as an Fe target, took place in spring 2009. Results of a preliminary analysis and study of detector performance will be presented.
