Realistic variations in final-state interaction modeling can distort reconstructed neutrino energy spectra in DUNE-like experiments by amounts comparable to or exceeding those from changes in Δm²₃₂ or δ_CP, creating a potential degeneracy.

abstract
We present a detailed description of a new hadronic multiparticle production model for use in neutrino interaction simulations. Its validity spans a wide invariant mass range starting from pion production threshold. This model focuses on the low invariant mass region which is probed in few-GeV neutrino interactions and is of particular importance to neutrino oscillation experiments using accelerator and atmospheric fluxes. It exhibits reasonable agreement with a wide variety of experimental data. We also describe measurements that can be made in upcoming experiments that can improve modeling in areas where uncertainties are currently large.

The role of final-state interaction modeling in neutrino energy reconstruction and oscillation measurements
Realistic variations in final-state interaction modeling can distort reconstructed neutrino energy spectra in DUNE-like experiments by amounts comparable to or exceeding those from changes in Δm²₃₂ or δ_CP, creating a potential degeneracy.
