“…The energy of the ν e candidates is estimated from the reconstructed energy deposition in the TT making use of a calibration obtained through the MC simulation in a similar way as for the ν µ CC and neutral-current (NC) events as described in [16]. The estimated energy resolution for an energy range up to 100 GeV can be parametrized as:…”

“…The integrated contamination of ν e and ν e CC interactions at Gran Sasso, relative to the integrated number of ν µ CC interactions, is 0.88% and 0.05%, respectively. [6,16].…”

“…Profiting from the information given by the muon spectrometers, results are provided separately for muon neutrinos and anti-neutrinos present in the CNGS beam. Indeed, ∼4% of the Charged Current (CC) interactions in the surrounding rock and inside the detector result fromν µ interactions [4]. …”

“…A sample of CNGS beam CC neutrino interactions has been generated in the detector target, using the full OPERA simulation chain MC-II described above [22]. Figure 6 shows the distribution of the product of the reconstructed muon momentum p µ and its charge in a range extending from −150 GeV/c to 100 GeV/c that includes essentially all events.…”
