Descriptions of SBN Production Samples

SBN Production Available Samples Descriptions-

Below we will include useful information for analyzers to understand what goes into each sample, as listed from the Samples Page.

Here is what is listed for each sample:

  1. short description of sample, what it’s used for, how to use it, general notes on usage
  2. which runs are used: time frame or cuts to make definition
  3. code versions
  4. fcls?

What is in each sample:

# Generation 2 Analyses

Note on Gen 2: [Insert description here regarding what distinguishes Gen 2 from previous iterations, such as updated reconstruction algorithms or new calibration constants.]


Data (Unblinded)

Unblinded data is available for use and doesn’t require access requests?

1. BNB + Light Data (Unblinded)

The primary neutrino stream for SBND physics analysis.
