The Results of MINOS and the Future with MINOS+

Figure 3

The true energy distribution of Near Detector events from the three different NuMI configurations. The target position (distance upstream of a nominal position) and horn current of each configuration are shown in the caption. “0.1 m, 185 kA” is the “low energy” configuration in which most of the MINOS data has been taken. “1.0 m, 200 kA” is the “medium energy” configuration which is the beam configuration in the NOA era and therefore is the beam setup in which MINOS+ is currently taking data in. The final configuration is the “pseudo high energy” configuration.
