Abstract: | NA61/SHINE is a large-acceptance fixed-target experiment located at the CERN SPS, which studies final hadronic states in interactions of various particles and nuclei. It is unique in terms of providing data on a variety of collision systems at different collision energies. This allows for wide deuteron, antiproton, and antideuteron production cross-section studies. The latter is currently considered as a possible dark matter interaction signal with an exceptionally low background. The measurements of proton interactions with carbon target are important to reduce systematic experimental effects due to experiment-internal antideuteron production, as the most abundant element in the path of an incoming particle for the most detectors is carbon. This paper will focus on the analysis of NA61/SHINE data on p+C thin target collisions in the context of light (anti)nuclei production. I will present a performance study of analysis of experimental data, discuss quality cuts and the particle identification method. |
