Abstract

Using a custom 3-Čerenkov ring fitter, we report cross sections for ν_μ-induced charged-current single π0 production on mineral oil (CH₂) from a sample of 5810 candidate events with 57% signal purity over an energy range of 0.5-2.0 GeV. This includes measurements of the absolute total cross section as a function of neutrino energy, and flux-averaged differential cross sections measured in terms of Q2, μ^- kinematics, and π0 kinematics. The sample yields a flux-averaged total cross section of (9.2±0.3_stat±1.5_syst) ×10^-39cm2/CH₂ at mean neutrino energy of 0.965 GeV.
