T2K is designed to measure the parameters that describe a quantum mechanical process called flavor oscillation where a neutrino of definite flavor (type) is created and later observed as a different flavor. Knowledge of the background channels in T2K is critical for constraining our measurements of the oscillation parameters. A novel study on estimating a systematic uncertainty on a background channel is presented.born digitalStudent workspostersengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
