High-quality predictions for neutrino-nucleus cross sections are needed for use in ongoing experimental studies of neutrino oscillations at GeV energies, where a fully relativistic treatment of the neutrino-nucleus scattering is mandatory, but hard to achieve. Of course any reliable calculation for neutrino scattering should first be tested against electron scattering in the same kinemati-cal c...
متن کاملSuperscaling in lepton - nucleus scattering
We suggest that superscaling analyses of few-GeV inclusive electron scattering from nuclei, both in the quasielastic peak and in the region where the ∆-excitation dominates, allow one to make reliable predictions for charge-changing neutrino reactions at energies of a few GeV, relevant for neutrino oscillation experiments.
متن کاملMeson-exchange currents and quasielastic antineutrino cross sections in the superscaling approximation.
We evaluate quasielastic double-differential antineutrino cross sections obtained in a phenomenological model based on the superscaling behavior of electron scattering data and estimate the contribution of the vector meson-exchange currents in the two-particle-two-hole sector. We show that the impact of meson-exchange currents for charge-changing antineutrino reactions is much larger than in th...
متن کاملTesting superscaling predictions in electroweak excitations of nuclei
Superscaling analysis of electroweak nuclear response functions is done for momentum transfer values from 300 to 700 MeV/c. Some effects, absent in the Relativistic Fermi Gas model, where the superscaling holds by construction, are considered. From the responses calculated for the C, O and Ca nuclei, we have extracted a theoretical universal superscaling function similar to that obtained from t...
متن کاملExcitation of nuclear giant resonances in neutrino scattering off nuclei
The cross sections for neutrino scattering off the C and O nuclei are calculated within the framework of the continuum Random Phase Approximation. A model to consider also the final state interactions is developed. Total charge-conserving and charge-exchange cross sections for both electron neutrinos and antineutrinos have been calculated up to projectile energies of 100 MeV. The sensitivity of...
