Using the T2K near detector to study electron neutrino charged current quasi-elastic-like interactions on carbon

In T2K ${\nu }_{\mu }\to {\nu }_e$ oscillation analyses, electron neutrinos are the signal at the far detector. For the beam peak energy, $\sim 0.6 ,$GeV, charged current quasi-elastic (CCQE) neutrino interactions dominate. Here we use the T2K near detector to measure electron neutrino CCQE-like interactions, which are defined by having no pions exit the nucleus: ${\nu }_e$CC$0\pi$. The selection, backgrounds and steps towards a cross section measurement on carbon are presented.
