“…[20]. Furthermore, experimental ∆ → πN angular decay anisotropy measured by ANL [16,17] and BNL [18,19] experiments has been included The ∆(1232) is propagated before it decays into pion and nucleon according to its free life time. Other recently developed feature is the approximate introduction of pionless ∆(1232) decays using in-medium widths provided in [24] and following total cross section modifications calculated in [27].…”

“…Unfortunately there exist no such precise data on the weak pion production off nucleon targets. The only accessible information comes from old bubble chamber experiments, ANL [16,17] and BNL [18,19]. A constant effort is undertaken to extract more precise information about the excitation vertex of ∆(1232) resonance ( [10], [20], [21], [15], [22], [11], [9]), yet one can not achieve precission level better than ∼10% even in the case of leading C A 5 form factor.…”

In this thesis, we report on a measurement of muon neutrino inclusive charged current interactions on carbon in the few GeV region, using the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam. The all neutrino mode data collected in the SciBooNE experiment is used for this analysis.We collected high-statistics CC interaction sample at SciBooNE, and extracted energy dependent inclusive charged current interaction rates and cross sections for a wide energy range from 0.25 GeV to ∼3 GeV. We measure the interaction rates with 6-15% precision, and the cross sections with 10-30% precision. We also made an energy integrated measurements, with the precisions of 3% for the rate, and 8% for the cross section measurements. This is the first measurement of the CC inclusive cross section on carbon around 1 GeV.This inclusive interaction measurement is nearly free from effects of hadron re-interactions in the nucleus. Hence, it is complementary to other exclusive cross section measurements, and essential to understand the neutrino interaction cross sections in the few GeV region, which is relevant to ongoing and future neutrino oscillation experiments. This analysis also provides the normalization for SciBooNE's previous cross section ratio measurements for charged current coherent pion production and neutral current neutral pion production. Then, a precise comparison between our previous measurements and the model predictions becomes possible.The result of the interaction rate measurement is used to constrain the product of the neutrino flux and the cross section at the other experiment on the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam: MiniBooNE. We conducted a search for short-baseline muon neutrino disappearance using data both from SciBooNE and MiniBooNE, to test a possible neutrino oscillation with sterile neutrinos which is suggested by the LSND experiment. With this constraint by SciBooNE, we significantly reduced the flux and the cross section uncertainties at MiniBooNE, and achieved the world best sensitivity for the ν µ disappearance at 0.5 < ∆m 2 < 30 (eV 2 ). We found no significant oscillation signal, and set one of the world strongest limits for the sterile neutrino models.ii

“…[8], where the form factors were fitted to electroproduction helicity amplitudes. The N ∆ transition axial form factors are tuned to fit BNL data [9] for the ν µ + p −→ µ − + p + π + channel when only the contribution from the ∆-resonance is considered. Thus, in this work we use C A 5 (0) = 1.2, M A = 1.05 GeV [10].…”

In (b) the cut in W is removed and BNL data [9] are also included. In panel (c) we confront our results with MiniBooNE data [1].…”

Neutrino-induced pion production constitutes an important contribution to neutrino-nucleus scattering cross sections at intermediate energies. A deep understanding of this process is mandatory for a correct interpretation of neutrino-oscillation experiments. We aim at contributing to the ongoing effort to understand the various experimental results obtained by different collaborations in a wide range of energies. In particular, in this work we analyze recent MiniBooNE and MINERνA charged-current neutrino 1-π production data. We use a relativistic theoretical approach which accounts for resonant and non-resonant 1-π production contributions. KEYWORDS: Neutrino interactions, pion productionMost of the recent neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments work in the intermediate energy region (incident neutrino energy from some hundreds of MeV to a few GeV) where the quasielastic (QE) and the pion production channels are the dominant reaction mechanisms. A good understanding of all possible channels involved in the reaction as well as accounting for nuclear effects is essential to obtain a reliable reconstruction of the neutrino energy and, consequently, to reduce systematic uncertainties in determining neutrino oscillation parameters. The recent measurements on neutrino-induced pion production reported by the MiniBooNE [1] and MINERνA [2] collaborations show that the current theoretical predictions are not able to reproduce the experimental cross sections with the desired accuracy. Additionaly, due to the increasing energies of the new generation of experiments (HyperKamiokande and LBNF) a thorough understanding of the pion production process will be crucial in the near future.
