Combined Atmospheric Analysis:Study of 6 Month’s Data.

Overview

Andy Blake, Cambridge University Combined Analysis, slide 2

• Developing a combined atmospheric neutrino analysis:

– Contained vertex muon neutrinos (John Chapman).

– Upward-going muons (Brian Rebel, John Chapman).

– Contained vertex electron neutrinos (Ben Speakman).

• Currently developing event selection code:

– All track and shower selection variables now calculated in AtNuOutput classes and stored in AtNuEvent classes.

– Event selection implemented in AtNuAna package.

– Analysis variables written to short AtNuAna Ntuples.

• Have now completed study using six month data sample.
