Abstract:
In this study, we present reconstruction methods of kinematic variables in neutrino interactions in the few-GeV energy range. We use GENIE - a new neutrino Monte Carlo generator - to generate events and compute the cross sections for neutrino-nucleus interactions. We analyze the event samples and the relevant distributions for the kinematic variables are shown. The present study is useful for improving underground detectors discovery potential for determining the neutrino properties.
