ABSTRACT
We report a measurement of the ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}$-nucleus inclusive charged-current cross section ($={\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{cc}$) on iron using data from INGRID detector exposed to J-PARC neutrino beam. The consists 14 modules in total, which are spread over range off-axis angles 0\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} 1.1\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}. variation energy spectrum as function angle, combined with event topology information, is used calculate this energy. measured be ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{cc}(1.1\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV})=1.10\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.15$ $(1{0}^{\ensuremath{-}38}\text{ }{\mathrm{cm}}^{2}/\text{nucleon})$, ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{cc}(2.0\text{ }\mathrm{GeV})=2.07\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.27$ and ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{cc}(3.3\text{ }\mathrm{GeV})=2.29\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.45$ at energies 1.1, 2.0, 3.3 GeV, respectively. These results consistent calculated by interaction generators currently T2K. More importantly, method described here opens up new way determine dependence neutrino-nucleus sections.
