Abstract
We present a measurement of production from neutrino interactions on argon with the MicroBooNE detector. The modeling of resonant neutrino interactions on argon is a critical aspect of the neutrino oscillation physics program being carried out by the DUNE and Short Baseline Neutrino programs. production in neutrino interactions provides a powerful new probe of resonant interactions, complementary to pion channels, and is particularly suited to the study of higher-order resonances beyond the . We measure a flux-integrated cross section for neutrino-induced production on argon of . By demonstrating the successful reconstruction of the two photons resulting from production, this analysis enables a novel calibration technique for electromagnetic showers in GeV accelerator neutrino experiments.
