“…Whereas most of the existing calculations refer to a 12 C target [13,15,[26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33], there is growing interest in the extension to heavier nuclei, such as 16 O, 40 Ar, 56 Fe, and 208 Pb, used in ongoing and future neutrino experiments. Since the calculation of the 2p-2h response is computationally demanding and time consuming, in this paper we provide an estimate of the density dependence of these contributions which can be used to extrapolate the results from one nucleus to another.…”
