MicroBooNE measures charged-particle multiplicity in first neutrino-beam-based result

This plot shows the observed multiplicity of charged particles emerging from the neutrino interaction point in MicroBooNE data (points with error bars) and three models (histograms). Data favors lower multiplicity compared to all the models.

The path to extracting deeper science from neutrinos starts with understanding the details of their interactions — the manner in which they scatter from protons and neutrons and the effects of the argon nuclear volume on this scattering.
