Outline of Research at the Start	Work on the acquisition, processing and validation of new data of the upgraded T2K experiment. Develop analysis samples suitable for the study of interactions involving low momentum hadrons, and neutrons. Extract observables of interest from the above samples, such as the interaction cross-section.
