Neutrino-Nucleon Neutral Current Elastic Scattering at SciBooNE
- Department of Physics, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo 152-8551 (Japan)
The cross-section for neutrino-nucleon neutral current (NC) elastic scattering contains the axial vector form factor G{sub A}(Q{sup 2}2) as well as the electromagnetic form factors unlike electromagnetic interaction. G{sub A} is proportional to strange part of nucleon spin ({delta}s) in the Q{sup 2}{yields}0 limit. Measurement of the NC elastic cross-section in the small Q{sup 2} region enables us to access {delta}s. Signal of NC elastic scattering is a single proton. Analysis for the single proton events using geometrical and energy deposit information on reconstructed track was performed. NC elastic scattering data sample including vp{yields}vp and vn{yields}vn is obtained. The absolute cross-section as a function of nucleon kinetic energy is reported.
