Title: Impact of final state interactions on neutrino-nucleon pion production cross sections extracted from neutrino-deuteron reaction data

Abstract

The current and near-future neutrino-oscillation experiments require significantly improved neutrinonucleus reaction models. Neutrino-nucleon pion production data play a crucial role to validate corresponding elementary amplitudes that go into such neutrino-nucleus models. Thus, the currently available data extracted from charged-current neutrino-deuteron reaction data (ν_μd → μ^-πNN) must be corrected for nuclear effects such as the Fermi motion and final state interactions (FSI). We study ν_μd → μ^-πNN with a theoretical model including the impulse mechanism supplemented by FSI from NN and πN rescatterings. An analysis of the spectator momentum distributions reveals that the FSI effects significantly reduce the spectra over the quasifree peak region and leads to a useful recipe to extract information of elementary ν_μN → μ^-πN processes using ν_μd → μ^-πNN data, with the important FSI corrections taken into account. We provide ν_μN → μ^-πN total cross sections by correcting the deuterium bubble chamber data for the FSI and Fermi motion. The results will bring a significant improvement on neutrino-nucleus reaction models for the near-future neutrino-oscillation experiments.

Near-threshold incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron with final-state interaction effects

Journal Article Darwish, E.M., E-mail: darwish@science.sohag.edu.eg ; Physics Department, Faculty of Science, Sohag University, Sohag 82524 ; Almarashi, M. M. ; ... - Annals of Physics

Highlights: • Incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron near threshold is investigated including rescattering effects. • For the first time, polarization observables are predicted near threshold. • The influence of NN-FSI effect is moderate in the π{sup 0}-production. • πN-rescattering has a noticeable contribution only in the π{sup 0}-production. • The unpolarized cross sections have a satisfactory agreement with experiment and other theories. - Abstract: Incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron γd→πNN is investigated in the energy region E{sub γ}{sup thr}≤E{sub γ}≤ 160 MeV.

Incoherent pion production in neutrino-deuteron interactions

Journal Article Wu, Jia-Jun ; Sato, T. ; Lee, T. -S. H. - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

Within the multiple scattering formulation, the incoherent pion production in neutrino-deuteron reactions at energies near the Δ(1232) resonance is investigated. The calculations include an impulse term and one-loop contributions from nucleon-nucleon (NN) and pion-nucleon (πN) final state interactions. The input pion production amplitudes and πN scattering amplitudes are generated from a dynamical model, which describes very extensive data of πN scattering and both the electromagnetic and the weak pion production reactions on the nucleon. The NN scattering amplitudes are generated from the Bonn potential. The validity of the developed calculation procedures is established by giving a reasonably good description ofmore »« less

Photo- and Electro-excitation of Bound Neutrons and Protons

Journal Article Nakamura, Satoshi X. - Few-Body Systems

Data for pion photo-productions off the neutron ( γn→πN ) have been mainly extracted from deuteron-target data ( γd→πNN ) by applying kinematical cuts thereby isolating the quasi-free samples. We critically explore if the neutron-target data obtained through this conventional procedure can be contaminated by final state interactions (FSI) and/or the kinematical cuts. The analysis is conducted with a theoretical model for γd→πNN that takes account of the impulse mechanisms supplemented by the NN and πN rescattering mechanisms. We show that the FSI effects still visibly remain in the extracted γ ‘n’ →πN unpolarized cross sections and polarization asymmetries Emore »« less

Deuterium target data for precision neutrino-nucleus cross sections

Journal Article Meyer, Aaron S. ; Betancourt, Minerba ; Gran, Richard ; ... - Physical Review D

Amplitudes derived from scattering data on elementary targets are basic inputs to neutrino-nucleus cross section predictions. A prominent example is the isovector axial nucleon form factor, F_A(q²), which controls charged current signal processes at accelerator-based neutrino oscillation experiments. Previous extractions of F_A from neutrino-deuteron scattering data rely on a dipole shape assumption that introduces an unquantified error. A new analysis of world data for neutrino-deuteron scattering is performed using a model-independent, and systematically improvable, representation of F_A. A complete error budget for the nucleon isovector axial radius leads to r_A² = 0.46(22)fm², with a much larger uncertainty than determined inmore »« less

Measurement of muon neutrino and antineutrino induced single neutral pion production cross sections

Thesis/Dissertation Anderson, Colin E.

Elucidating the nature of neutrino oscillation continues to be a goal in the vanguard of the efforts of physics experiment. As neutrino oscillation searches seek an increasingly elusive signal, a thorough understanding of the possible backgrounds becomes ever more important. Measurements of neutrino-nucleus interaction cross sections are key to this understanding. Searches for ν_μ → ν_e oscillation - a channel that may yield insight into the vanishingly small mixing parameter θ₁3, CP violation, and the neutrino mass hierarchy - are particularly susceptible to contamination from neutral current single π⁰ (NC 1π⁰) production. Unfortunately, the available data concerning NC 1π⁰ productionmore »« less
