Abstract
This paper reports the first differential measurement of the charged-current interaction cross section of νμ on water with no pions in the final state. This flux-averaged measurement has been made using the T2K experiment’s off-axis near detector, and is reported in doubly differential bins of muon momentum and angle. The flux-averaged total cross section in a restricted region of phase space was found to be σ = (0.95 ± 0.08 (stat) ± 0.06 (det syst) ± 0.04 (model syst) ± 0.08 (flux)) × 10 − 38cm2/n.
