Description

T2K is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment whose major goal is to search for CP violation. The experiment is performed through measuring neutrino energy spectra at near and far detectors. The near detector plays a crucial role in the measurement, because it not only provides precise information about neutrino spectra at the origin, but also reduces the neutrino flux and cross section systematic uncertainties, therefore achieves a more reliable measurement of the neutrino oscillation probability. In the upcoming T2K data taking, a new highly granular scintillator detector (SuperFGD), which acts as a main active neutrino target, will be installed as a part of magnetized near detector (ND280) upgrade program. This poster will describe the tools developed for the reconstruction of neutrino interactions in SuperFGD. In particular, we will show how the 3D tracking combined with precise calorimetry and sub-ns time resolution helps with the particle identification and momentum reconstruction, which are indispensable for the characterization of neutrino interaction final states.
