The measurements utilize events of energies $2<E_{\\nu}<20~GeV$, with $\\left< E_{\\nu}\\right>=8~GeV$, which have a reconstructed $\\mu^{-}$ scattering angle less than $17^\\circ$ to extract ratios of inclusive total cross sections as a function of neutrino energy $E_{\\nu}$ and flux-integrated differential cross sections with respect to the Bjorken scaling variable $x$.
