Abstract/Summary:
Presented is a study of exclusive neutral pion production in neutrino-nucleus Neutral Current interactions using data from the NOMAD experiment at the CERN SPS. All relevant backgrounds to the coherent neutral pion production signal are measured using data themselves. The Rein-Sehgal model for the coherent neutral pion production is used to compute the detection efficiency.
