abstract
We present a measurement of the muon neutrino-nucleon inclusive charged current cross-section, off an isoscalar target, in the neutrino energy range $2.5 \leq E_\nu \leq 40$ GeV. The significance of this measurement is its precision, $\pm 4$% in $2.5 \leq E_\nu \leq 10$ GeV, and $\pm 2.6$% in $10 \leq E_\nu \leq 40$ GeV regions, where significant uncertainties in previous experiments still exist, and its importance to the current and proposed long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments.

Super-Kamiokande measures the flux-averaged muon neutrino and antineutrino charged-current cross section at 500-5000 GeV as (0.51 ± 0.11) × 10^{-38} cm² GeV^{-1}.
MINERvA compares quasielastic-like cross sections at two neutrino beam energies and finds discrepancies pointing to overestimated final state interactions for protons and pions.
Neutrino interaction model uncertainties from nuclear physics details remain a dominant systematic in oscillation analyses and will require improved modeling plus near-detector constraints to reach the precision goals of next-generation experiments.
