J.; Yokoyama, M.; Zeller, Geralyn P.; Zimmerman, E. D. (American Physical Society, 2010-06-16)The SciBooNE Collaboration reports a measurement of neutral current coherent π⁰ production on carbon by a muon neutrino beam with average energy 0.8 GeV. The separation of coherent from inclusive π⁰ production has been improved by detecting recoil protons from resonant π⁰ production. We measure the ratio of the neutral current coherent π⁰ production to total charged current cross sections to be (1.16 ± 0.24) x 10⁻². The ratio of charged current coherent π⁺ to neutral current coherent π⁰ production is calculated to be 0.14+0.30−0.28, using our published charged current coherent pion measurement.

J.; Yokoyama, M.; Zeller, Geralyn P.; Zimmerman, E. D. (American Physical Society, 2010-02-01)The SciBooNE Collaboration reports inclusive neutral current neutral pion production by a muon neutrino beam on a polystyrene target (C8H8). We obtain (7.7 ± 0.5(stat.) ± 0.5(sys.)) x 10⁻²as the ratio of the neutral current neutral pion production to total charged current cross section; the mean energy of neutrinos producing detected neutral pions is 1.1 GeV. The result agrees with the Rein-Sehgal model implemented in our neutrino interaction simulation program with nuclear effects. The spectrum shape of the π⁰ momentum and angle agree with the model. We also measure the ratio of the neutral current coherent pion production to total charged current cross section to be (0.7 ± 0.4) x 10⁻².

J.; Yokoyama, M.; Zeller, Geralyn P.; Zimmerman, E. D. (American Physical Society, 2008-12-01)The SciBooNE Collaboration has performed a search for charged current coherent pion production from muon neutrinos scattering on carbon, νυ 12C &8594; μ 12Cπ ⁺, with two distinct data samples. No evidence for coherent pion production is observed. We set 90% confidence level upper limits on the cross section ratio of charged current coherent pion production to the total charged current cross section at 0.67 x 102 at mean neutrino energy 1.1 GeV and 1.36 x 102 at mean neutrino energy 2.2 GeV.
