Measurement of the production cross-section of positive pions in the collision of 8.9 GeV/c protons on beryllium
- Abstract:
-
The double-differential production cross-section of positive pions, d 2σπ+/d pdΩ, measured in the HARP experiment is presented. The incident particles are 8.9 GeV/c protons directed onto a beryllium target with a thickness of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. The measured cross-section has a direct impact on the prediction of neutrino fluxes for the MiniBooNE and SciBooNE experiments at Fermilab. After cuts, 13 million protons on target produced about 96000 reconstructed secondary tracks wh...
