We investigate the expected precision of the reconstructed neutrino direction using a {\nu}{\mu}-argon quasielastic-like event topology with one muon and one proton in the final state and the reconstruction capabilities of the MicroBooNE liquid argon time projection chamber. This direction is of importance in the context of DUNE sub-GeV atmospheric oscillation studies. MicroBooNE allows for a data-driven quantification of this resolution by investigating the deviation of the reconstructed muon-proton system orientation with respect to the well-known direction of neutrinos originating from the Booster Neutrino Beam with an exposure of 1.3 x 1021 protons on target. Using simulation studies, we derive the expected sub-GeV DUNE atmospheric-neutrino reconstructed simulated spectrum by developing a reweighting scheme as a function of the true neutrino energy. We further report flux-integrated single- and double-differential cross section measurements of charged-current {\nu}{\mu} quasielastic-like scattering on argon as a function of the muon-proton system angle using the full MicroBooNE data sets. We also demonstrate the sensitivity of these results to nuclear effects and final state hadronic reinteraction modeling.

    physics.data-an 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The W²-based estimator shows the smallest bias versus true neutrino energy and greater stability to mismodelling of scattering and interactions than four common alternatives in LArTPC experiments.

  2. The High W Challenge: Robust Neutrino Energy Estimators for LArTPCs

    physics.data-an 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0

    A W²-based hadronic-invariant-mass estimator produces the least biased neutrino energy reconstruction for LArTPCs across the shallow-to-deep-inelastic transition region, at the cost of worse resolution under perfect modeling.
