Analyzing Antineutrino Spectrum: Impact of Systematics on QEL and Resonance Components

This study investigates the contributions of various components to the antineutrino spectrum, particularly focusing on the quasi-elastic (QEL) and resonance (Res) interactions. Through Monte Carlo simulations and systematic variations, we determine the fractions of the antineutrino spectrum attributed to these components under different configurations. We highlight the systematic errors introduced during the analysis, aiming to refine the understanding of antineutrino interactions in particle physics. Our findings emphasize the importance of considering these systematics in spectral measurements.

  4. Example: qel and res components increased by 30%, pME-POT=1e19 Fluctuate the pME histograms to create fake data set (which now includes these systematics) and fit in usual way:

  5. But original m+ spectra got modified by systematics, so parLE and parME are not the right parameters to look at to find out systematic error. Consider sucLE and sucME parameters, defined by: #antineutrinos from m+ predicted by fit, LE sucLE = #antineutrinos from m+ in fake data, LE #antineutrinos from m+ predicted by fit, pME sucME = #antineutrinos from m+ in fake data, pME ~6.5% systematic error in our antineutrinos from m+ in LE measurement For qel and res both increased by 30%, with 1e19 POT of pME-POT Evidently, when no systematics are added then parLE=sucLE and parME=sucME
