The ArgoNeuT collaboration reports the first measurement of neutral current $pi^{0}$ production in $ u_{mu}$-argon and $bar{ u}_{mu}$-argon scattering. This measurement was performed using the ArgoNeuT liquid argon time projection chamber deployed at Fermilabs NuMI neutrino beam with an exposure corresponding to 1.2$times 10^{20}$ protons-on-target from the Fermilab Main Injector and a mean energy for $ u_{mu}$ of 9.6~GeV and for $bar{ u}_{mu}$ of 3.6~GeV. We compare the measured cross section and kinematic distributions to predictions from the GENIE and NuWro neutrino interaction event generators.

This paper reports the track multiplicity and kinematics of muons, charged pions, and protons from charged-current inclusive $bar{ u}_{mu}$ and $ u_{mu}$ interactions on a water target, measured using a nuclear emulsion detector in the NINJA experime nt. A 3-kg water target was exposed to the T2K antineutrino-enhanced beam with a mean energy of 1.3 GeV. Owing to the high-granularity of the nuclear emulsion, protons with momenta down to 200 MeV/$c$ from the neutrino-water interactions were detected. We find good agreement between the observed data and model predictions for all kinematic distributions other than the number of charged pions. These results demonstrate the capability of measurements with nuclear emulsion to improve neutrino interaction models.
We report the first measurement of the flux-integrated cross section of $ u_{mu}$ charged-current single $pi^{0}$ production on argon. This measurement is performed with the MicroBooNE detector, an 85 ton active mass liquid argon time projection cham ber exposed to the Booster Neutrino Beam at Fermilab. This result on argon is compared to past measurements on lighter nuclei to investigate the scaling assumptions used in models of the production and transport of pions in neutrino-nucleus scattering. The techniques used are an important demonstration of the successful reconstruction and analysis of neutrino interactions producing electromagnetic final states using a liquid argon time projection chamber operating at the earths surface.
Production of K^{+} mesons in charged-current u_{mu} interactions on plastic scintillator (CH) is measured using MINERvA exposed to the low-energy NuMI beam at Fermilab. Timing information is used to isolate a sample of 885 charged-current events co ntaining a stopping K^{+} which decays at rest. The differential cross section in K^{+} kinetic energy, dsigma/dT_{K}, is observed to be relatively flat between 0 and 500 MeV. Its shape is in good agreement with the prediction by the textsc{genie} neutrino event generator when final-state interactions are included, however the data rate is lower than the prediction by 15%.
We observe a net beam-excess of $8.7 pm 6.3$ (stat) $pm 2.4$ (syst) events, above 160 MeV, resulting from the charged-current reaction of $ u_{mu}$ and/or $bar u_{mu}$ on C and H in the LSND detector. No beam related muon background is expected in th is energy regime. Within an analysis framework of $pi^0 to u_{mu}bar u_{mu}$, we set a direct upper limit for this branching ratio of $Gamma(pi^0 to u_mu bar u_mu) / Gamma(pi^0 to all) < 1.6 times 10^{-6}$ at 90% confidence level.

By analyzing 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at $sqrt s=3.773$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction ${mathcal B}(D^{+}rightarrowbar K^0mu^{+} u_{mu})=(8.72 pm 0.07_{rm stat.} pm 0.18_{rm sys.})%$, which is consist ent with previous measurements within uncertainties but with significantly improved precision. Combining the Particle Data Group values of ${mathcal B}(D^0to K^-mu^+ u_mu)$, ${mathcal B}(D^{+}rightarrowbar K^0 e^{+} u_{e})$, and the lifetimes of the $D^0$ and $D^+$ mesons with the value of ${mathcal B}(D^{+}rightarrowbar K^0 mu^{+} u_{mu})$ measured in this work, we determine the following ratios of partial widths: $Gamma(D^0to K^-mu^+ u_mu)/Gamma(D^{+}rightarrowbar K^0mu^{+} u_{mu})=0.963pm0.044$ and $Gamma(D^{+}rightarrowbar K^0 mu^{+} u_{mu})/Gamma(D^{+}rightarrowbar K^0 e^{+} u_{e})=0.988pm0.033$.
