10 MCDIS generator Dimuons

11 MCDIS  A new complete event generator for neutrino CC DIS has been implemented  Based on Aivazis helicity formalism  Leading Order cross section  Strange quark parametrization ( ,  )  Implements JETSET for hadronization  Fermi motion, radiative correction (Bardin)  Full control on each step via runcards Dimuons

12 MCDIS Leading Order cross section F = helicity structure functions (m t m c V CKM pdf(  ))  = Lorentz boost between lepton and hardon configurations Aivazis et al. (1994) Dimuons

13 MCDIS Leading Order cross section Where  in the limit of M 2 /Q 2  0 is the “slow rescaling” variable For charm neutrino production and neglecting initial quark mass Dimuons

14 MCDIS Fragmentation function z Z=P(h c )/P max (h c )  = 0.05 Peterson parametrization Dimuons

20 Evaluation of N charm

21 Background Background is due to  and K decay into  in CC interactions This can be evaluated using same sign dimuons in data and the ratio between opposite and same sign events in CC MonteCarlo Selection efficiencies and neutrino-antineutrino cross contamination also to be taken into account Dimuons

22 Background MonteCarlo:  High statistics (10 6 ) fully simulated CC interaction sample to evaluate Dimuons

23 Background In order to subtract background using this procedure it is crucial to verify that MC reproduces the distributions of the same sign dimuon events in the data Dimuons
