Electronic detector data for electron neutrino appearance studies

Listed in CERN Open Data

Description

<p>This dataset was extracted from the official OPERA data repository and it contains all the data of the electronic detectors for 19 electron neutrino candidates, identified after an extensive analysis that includes data from both electronic detectors and nuclear emulsion films after their digitization with fully automated optical microscopes. The OPERA experiment was able to distinguish all three types of neutrinos, including electron ones.

In total, 35 electron neutrino events were found in the complete data sample.</p><p>This data record contains the electronic detector hits for a subsample of 19 electron neutrino interactions in their propagation through the detector. It includes hits in the scintillating target tracker, drift tubes and resistive plate chambers. The hits in the drift tubes and in the resistive plate chambers are used to reconstruct the muon track, if any, and measure its charge and momentum.

The hits in the target tracker are used to predict the location of the neutrino interaction in the target units, the so-called bricks. This leads to the subsequent phase of the analysis where the neutrino interaction is located with micrometric accuracy and all tracks attached are measured.</p>
