High Energy Physics - Experiment 2015-01-14 v1

Abstract

We report the measurement of the flux-averaged antineutrino neutral current elastic scattering cross section (dσνˉNνˉN/dQ2d\sigma_{\bar \nu N \rightarrow \bar \nu N}/dQ^{2}) on CH2_{2} by the MiniBooNE experiment using the largest sample of antineutrino neutral current elastic candidate events ever collected. The ratio of the antineutrino to neutrino neutral current elastic scattering cross sections and a ratio of antineutrino neutral current elastic to antineutrino charged current quasi elastic cross section is also presented.
