Data release for the NOvA muon neutrino CC inclusive cross section in hadronic variables presented in PhysRev D 111 052009 (2025) DOI: https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.111.052009
The signal for this analysis is true muon neutrino CC interactions with a vertex in the fiducial volume of the NOvA near detector, i.e. the central 2.7m x 2.7m x 9.0m region.

The zip contains two root files on for the inclusive analysis NOvA_NumuCCIncXSec_HadronicVars_DataRelease.root and one for the analysis with 1p1h processes subtracted off NOvA_NumuCCExcessXSec_HadronicVars_DataRelease
The roots files contains the following folders
Results: which contains the double differential cross section Inclusive_XSec_EAvail_vs_q3, and single differential cross sections Inclusive_XSec_q3, and Inclusive_XSec_EAvail
Covariance which contains the corresponding systematic and statistical covariance matrices, Stat_Covariance_EAvail_vs_q3, Syst_Covariance_EAvail_vs_q3, Stat_Covariance_q3, Syst_Covariance_q3, and Stat_Covariance_EAvail, Syst_Covariance_EAvail.
Covariance_map which contains a map of covariance bin number to 2d analysis bin number TwoDtoCovIDMap
