Abstract:
In this study, we generate events and compute the cross sections for neutrino-nucleus interactions using GENIE - a new neutrino Monte Carlo generator. Events are generated for particular user-defined situations: neutrinos scattered off a fix nuclear target (Argon) and a neutrino flux passing throw simple detector geometry. We analyze the event samples and the relevant distributions for the primary lepton created in the events are shown. A comparison with other neutrino generators is also presented.
