Introduction One of the most important parts of any neutrino oscillation analysis is the identification of the neutrino flavour

We typically want to classify events into one of four types:
Charged-current or neutral-current

Will focus a bit more on the νe analysis here since it is the analysis that will provide a measurement of CP-violation
DUNE’s flagship analysis

The technique will also provide very good selections of the other particle types, however Leigh Whitehead 2<br>
03
Electron Neutrino Analysis Our biggest challenge is the selection (rejection) of signal (background) interactions

The analysis must therefore:
Efficiently select signal charged current electron neutrino interactions

Reject backgrounds arising from other neutrino interactions
Main one comes from neutral current interactions producing a π0 meson
The two decay photons will pair produce

Can mimic the electron signal in the TPC Leigh Whitehead 3<br>
