We report the first electron neutrino cross section measurements on argon, based on data collected by the ArgoNeuT experiment running in the GeV-scale NuMI beamline at Fermilab. A flux-averaged ν e þν e total and a lepton angle differential cross section are extracted using 13 ν e andν e events identified with fully automated selection and reconstruction. We employ electromagnetic-induced shower characterization and analysis tools developed to identify ν e =ν e-like events among complex interaction topologies present in ArgoNeuT data (hEν e i ¼ 4.3 GeV and hE ν e i ¼ 10.5 GeV). The techniques are widely applicable to searches for electron-flavor appearance at short and long baseline using liquid argon time projection chamber technology. Notably, the data-driven studies of GeV-scale ν e =ν e interactions presented here probe an energy regime relevant for future DUNE oscillation physics.

“…One important effect which is not incorporated into this work is the effect which arises when particles travel parallel to a series of wires in the 2D projective readout [28]. Events with this topology are particularly challenging to reconstruct using 2D projective readout [12]. Similarly, the effect of particles traveling perpendicularly to the 2D or 3D readout and the distortion of the signal shapes are also omitted.…”

Enhancing neutrino event reconstruction with pixel-based 3D readout for liquid argon time projection chambers

A: In this paper we explore the potential improvements in neutrino event reconstruction that a 3D pixelated readout could offer over a 2D projective wire readout for liquid argon time projection chambers. We simulate and study events in two generic, idealized detector configurations for these two designs, classifying events in each sample with deep convolutional neural networks to compare the best 2D results to the best 3D results. In almost all cases we find that the 3D readout provides better reconstruction efficiency and purity than the 2D projective wire readout, with the advantages of 3D being particularly evident in more complex topologies, such as electron neutrino charged current events. We conclude that the use of a 3D pixelated detector could significantly enhance the reach and impact of future liquid argon TPC experiments physics program, such as DUNE.

“…Tracks perpendicular to the wire planes produce prolonged signals on the induction planes which can be difficult to extract. Exact performance numbers are not yet available, and recent advances in signal processing and 3-D imaging using projective wire readout [133] has potentially narrowed the performance gap.…”

The authors of this paper primarily consist of those who participated in the New Opportunities at Next-Generation Neutrino Experiments workshop held on the campus of the University of Texas at Arlington. Given the anticipated and growing importance of BSM topics that can be explored in the next-generation neutrino experiments, the authors of this white paper are strong advocates of these topics and aim to become a de facto working group for the upcoming decadal study of the APS Division of Particles and Fields. This white paper is the first step to accomplish these goals, and provides a benchmark for ourselves to check progress toward making BSM physics a primary, yet complementary, topical area to precision neutrino oscillation parameter measurements. The authors plan to follow up this white paper and workshop with the subsequent series to ensure continued improvement and broadening of the BSM topics accessible to neutrino experiments, and to draw increasing attention to this field throughout the future.
