The Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) experiment [1] is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment in Japan. Using either the νμ or the νμ beam produced at the J-PARC accelerator complex, both electron (anti-) neutrino appearance and muon (anti-) neutrino disappearance are measured at the far detector, Super-Kamiokande (SK). T2K aims to make precision measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters, including a search for CP violation in the leptonic sector by precisely measuring the (anti-) neutrino oscillation. In these measurements, the neutrino event rate at SK is constrained by the cross-section and neutrino flux measured in the near detector, ND280. The ND280 includes two fine-grained detectors, FGD1 and FGD2 [2], used as a target for neutrino interactions and as a tracking device. The FGD1 interaction target is made up of plastic scintillators, and FGD2 consists of water and plastic scintillator targets, while SK is a water-target detector. Uncertainties in the modeling of neutrino–nucleus interactions due to the difference in the target at the near and far detectors constitute an additional source of systematic uncertainties in the T2K oscillation analysis. In addition, poorly understood nuclear effects like the so-called two-particle–two-hole (2p2h) process with large uncertainties motivate testing the interaction model at multiple neutrino energies. The neutrino-interaction model is used to extrapolate the neutrino event distributions from the near-detector measurements to the far detector as well as outgoing particle kinematics. First,
