Single Pion Production in Neutrino Reactions and Estimates for Charge - Exchange Effects
نویسنده
چکیده
We calculate single pion production by neutrinos in the resonance region. We consider both charged and neutral current reactions on free protons and neutrons. We present differential and total cross sections which can be compared with experiments. Then we use these results to calculate the spectra of the emerging pions including the Pauli suppression factor and rescattering corrections for reactions in heavy nuclei. Our results will be useful for studying single pion production and for investigating neutrino oscillations in future experiments.

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 کاملSinglepion production cross sections at MiniBooNE
The MiniBooNE experiment has prepared an almost pure beam of muon-neutrinos over an energy range of a few-hundred MeV to a few GeV with a sample of roughly one-million neutrino interactions. Detailed cross-section measurements have been performed spanning 89% of the total neutrino-interaction rate. Specifically, three single-pion production mechanisms have been measured in detail. These measure...
متن کاملJa n 20 06 Transport study of charged current interactions in neutrino - nucleus reactions
Within a dynamical transport approach we investigate charged current interactions in neutrino-nucleus reactions for neutrino energies of 0.3-1.5 GeV with particular emphasis on resonant pion production channels via the ∆ 33 (1232) resonance. The final-state-interactions of the resonance as well as of the emitted pions are calculated explicitly for 12 C and 56 F e nuclei and show a dominance of ...

The energy dependence of forward pion double charge exchange reactions on light nuclei is studied for both the Ground State transition and the Double-Isobaric-Analog-State transitions. A common characteristic of these double reactions is a resonance-like peak around 50 MeV pion lab energy. This peak arises naturally in a two-step process in the conventional pion-nucleon system with proper handl...
