- Author contribution statement
- Contributed to developing the neutrino flux production model used in the neutrino oscillation appearance analysis in the paper, and led the design and implementation of the combined muon and electron neutrino analysis used to constrain the contribution of the electron neutrino background from muon decay in the beam. Designed the software to propagate systematic uncertainties on neutrino flux and detector modeling to reconstructed energy distributions. Led the calibration of the proton beam intensity monitor used to normalize the neutrino flux. Served as a reviewer for the neutrino mode oscillation analysis description in the output.
