Adaptive Evolution in Ecological Communities
Multi-species interactions can influence evolution in ways that are unpredictable from studies that focus on simpler communities because direct and indirect species interactions alter the strength and direction of selection
Measurement of double-differential muon neutrino charged-current interactions on C8 H8 without pions in the final state using the T2K off-axis beam
We report the measurement of muon neutrino charged-current interactions on carbon without pions in the final state at the T2K beam energy using 5.734×1020 protons on target. For the first time the measurement is reported as a flux-integrated, double-differential cross section in muon kinematic variables (cosθμ, pμ), without correcting for events where a pion is produced and then absorbed by final state interactions. Two analyses are performed with different selections, background evaluations and cross-section extraction methods to demonstrate the robustness of the results against biases due to model-dependent assumptions. The measurements compare favorably with recent models which include nucleon-nucleon correlations but, given the present precision, the measurement does not distinguish among the available models. The data also agree with Monte Carlo simulations which use effective parameters that are tuned to external data to describe the nuclear effects. The total cross section in the full phase space is σ=(0.417±0.047(syst)±0.005(stat))×10-38 cm2 nucleon-1 and the cross section integrated in the region of phase space with largest efficiency and best signal-over-background ratio (cosθμ>0.6 and pμ>200 MeV) is σ=(0.202±0.036(syst)±0.003(stat))×10-38 cm2 nucleon-1
Measurement of the muon neutrino inclusive charged-current cross section in the energy range of 1–3 GeV with the T2K INGRID detector
We report a measurement of the νμ-nucleus inclusive charged-current cross section (¼ σcc) on iron using
data from the INGRID detector exposed to the J-PARC neutrino beam. The detector consists of 14 modules
in total, which are spread over a range of off-axis angles from 0° to 1.1°. The variation in the neutrino
energy spectrum as a function of the off-axis angle, combined with event topology information, is used to
calculate this cross section as a function of neutrino energy. The cross section is measured to be
σccð1.1 GeVÞ ¼ 1.10 0.15 ð10−38 cm2=nucleonÞ, σccð2.0 GeVÞ ¼ 2.07 0.27 ð10−38 cm2=nucleonÞ,
and σccð3.3 GeVÞ ¼ 2.29 0.45 ð10−38 cm2=nucleonÞ, at energies of 1.1, 2.0, and 3.3 GeV, respectively.
These results are consistent with the cross section calculated by the neutrino interaction generators
currently used by T2K. More importantly, the method described here opens up a new way to determine the
energy dependence of neutrino-nucleus cross sections
Updated T2K measurements of muon neutrino and antineutrino disappearance using 1.5 x 10(21) protons on target
We report measurements by the T2K experiment of the parameters
and governing the disappearance of muon neutrinos and
antineutrinos in the three flavor neutrino oscillation model. Utilizing the
ability of the experiment to run with either a mainly neutrino or a mainly
antineutrino beam, the parameters are measured separately for neutrinos and
antineutrinos. Using POT in neutrino running mode and
POT in antineutrino mode, T2K obtained,
and eV/c for neutrinos, and
and
eV/c for antineutrinos (assuming normal mass ordering). No
significant differences between the values of the parameters describing the
disappearance of muon neutrinos and antineutrinos were observed.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure
First measurement of the muon neutrino charged current single pion production cross section on water with the T2K near detector
The T2K off-axis near detector, ND280, is used to make the first differential cross section measurements
of muon neutrino charged current single positive pion production on a water target at energies ∼0.8 GeV.
The differential measurements are presented as a function of the muon and pion kinematics, in the restricted
phase space defined by pπþ > 200 MeV=c, pμ > 200 MeV=c, cosðθπþ Þ > 0.3 and cosðθμÞ > 0.3. The
total flux integrated νμ charged current single positive pion production cross section on water in the
restricted phase space is measured to be hσiϕ ¼ 4.25 0.48ðstatÞ 1.56ðsystÞ × 10−40 cm2=nucleon.
The total cross section is consistent with the NEUT prediction (5.03 × 10−40 cm2=nucleon) and 2σ lower
than the GENIE prediction (7.68 × 10−40 cm2=nucleon). The differential cross sections are in good
agreement with the NEUT generator. The GENIE simulation reproduces well the shapes of the
distributions, but overestimates the overall cross section normalization
