Status of the muon neutrino cross-section measurement using the off-axis NuMI beam at the ICARUS detector.

ORAL

Abstract

The ICARUS detector, a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber, will serve as the Far Detector of the short-baseline neutrino program using the Booster beamline at Fermilab. It is a 103 mrad off-axis of the NuMI beamline. Prospects for muon neutrino cross-section measurements will be shown. We present the muon neutrino event selection with Monte Carlo, the selection efficiency is measured from the Monte Carlo estimation using the GENIE event generator interfaced with GEANT4 simulation. The status of the commissioning data will be presented.
