Benchmarking of neutrino energy reconstruction methods using electron-deuterium scattering data
… of their propagation distance divided by their energy (𝐿/𝐸), so experiments extract oscillation parameters by measuring the neutrino energy distribution at different locations. As accelerator-based oscillation experiments cannot directly measure 𝐸, their interpretation relies heavily on …

Muon Energy Reconstruction Through the Multiple Scattering Method in the NOvA Detectors
Neutrino energy measurements are a crucial component in the experimental study of neutrino oscillations. These measurements are done through the reconstruction of neutrino interactions and energy measurements of their products. This thesis presents the development of a technique to reconstruct the …

Multi-pixel charge sharing energy reconstruction (MCSER) algorithm with application in small-pixel semiconductor detectors
… paper, we discuss a multi-pixel charge sharing energy reconstruction (MCSER) algorithm that could be used to enhance the spectral performance of the small-pixel CdTe/CZT semiconductor detectors. This algorithm, by exploiting the patterns of charge sharing between adjacent pixels, allows for an …

Validation of Neutrino Energy Estimation Using Electron Scattering Data
… the knowledge of the initial neutrino energy is required. This energy cannot be determined directly because neutrino beams have a broad energy distribution. Instead, the initial energy for each event is estimated from the final state particles of a neutrino-nucleus interaction using two …

Stabilizing energy reconstructions of the surface detector at the Pierre Auger Observatory
At the Pierre Auger Observatory, ultra-high energy cosmic rays are measured through indirect measurements of the extensive air showers they induce. Accordingly, an energy reconstruction process must be undertaken. For the surface detector, the models utilized for energy reconstruction are empirical …

Deep Learning for the KamLAND-Zen Search for 0𝜈𝛽𝛽
… The algorithm is independent of vertex and energy reconstruction, so it is complementary to current methods and can be expanded to other background sources.

THE PION DOUBLE DIFFERENTIAL CHARGE EXCHANGE CROSS SECTION IN PROTODUNE-SP
… The baseline choice requires a wide-band higher energy $E_{\nu} > 1$GeV neutrino beam. Higher energy neutrino interactions are more complicated and produce more charged pions with sizable effects from final state interactions as they traverse the nucleus. The final state interactions, especially …
