Coherent pion production in neutrino-nucleus collisions
نویسنده
چکیده
We have investigated the neutrino induced coherent pion production reaction at low and intermediate energies including pion, nucleon and ∆(1232) resonance. Medium effects in the production mechanism and the distortion of the pion wave function are included in the calculation. We find a strong reduction of the cross section due to these effects and also substantial modifications in the energy distributions of the final pion. The dependence on the atomic number is discussed.

Dynamical Model of Coherent Electroweak Pion Production Reactions on Nuclei
We have developed a dynamical model for a unified description of the pion-nucleus scattering and photoand neutrino-induced coherent pion production on nuclei. Our approach is based on a combined use of the Sato-Lee model for the electroweak pion production on a single nucleon and the ∆-hole model of pion-nucleus scattering. Numerical calculations are carried out for the case of the 12C target. ...
متن کاملMeasurement of Charged Current Charged Single Pion Production in SciBooNE
Neutrino-induced charged current single charged pion production (CC-1π) is dominated by baryonic resonance excitation off a single nucleon bound in a nucleus in the neutrino energy region of a few GeV. The resonance state is followed by its prompt decay into a nucleon and a pion in the final state. The process is written as νμN → μ Nπ, where N is proton or neutron. In addition to this reaction,...
متن کاملMultipion Coherent Effects in High Energy Heavy-ion Collisions
Multipion production in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions is considered in the model of the pion radiation by classical current. Strong coherent effects of narrowing of pion longitudinal and transverse momenta distributions are predicted at the RHIC energy. The coherence enhances the large pseudorapidities producing the bump in the distribution. The growth of the average pion multiplicity ...
متن کاملPCAC and coherent pion production by neutrinos
Abstract. Coherent π and π production in low energy neutrino reactions is discussed in the framework of the partially conserved axial vector current theory (PCAC). The role of lepton mass effects in suppressing the π production is discussed. Instead of using models of pion nucleus scattering, the available data on pion carbon scattering are implemented for an analysis of the PCAC prediction. Ou...
متن کاملEPPS16: nuclear parton distributions with LHC data
We introduce a global analysis of collinearly factorized nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs) including, for the first time, data constraints from LHC proton-lead collisions. In comparison to our previous analysis, EPS09, where data only from charged-lepton-nucleus deep inelastic scattering (DIS), Drell-Yan (DY) dilepton production in proton-nucleus collisions and inclusive pion product...
