Abstract
We report a measurement of the ν_μ inclusive charged current cross
sections on iron and hydrocarbon in the T2K on-axis neutrino beam. The measured
inclusive charged current cross sections on iron and hydrocarbon averaged over
the T2K on-axis flux with a mean neutrino energy of 1.51 GeV are
(1.444±0.002(stat.)_-0.157^+0.189(syst.))×
10^-38cm^2/nucleon, and
(1.379±0.009(stat.)_-0.147^+0.178(syst.))×
10^-38cm^2/nucleon, respectively, and their cross section
ratio is 1.047±0.007(stat.)±0.035(syst.). These results agree well with
the predictions of the neutrino interaction model, and thus we checked the
correct treatment of the nuclear effect for iron and hydrocarbon targets in the
model within the measurement precisions.
