Neutrino–nucleon reactions in resonance region

Abstract

Theoretical models of the neutrino-induced meson production reaction are reviewed. The formulation of various approaches to the neutrino reactions in the resonance region is briefly discussed. The total cross-section, the distribution of charged lepton and pion are examined using the dynamical coupled channel (DCC) model. Possible test of the models of axial vector current in the resonance region is discussed.

Single pion production in electron-proton interactions

“…Models of SPP cross section processes are required to accurately predict the number and topology of observed final state particles in neutrino interactions, and to help establish the relationship between neutrino energy and energy deposition in a neutrino detector. These predictions incorporate a model of the neutrino-nucleon interaction [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17], and a model of the nucleus [18][19][20] in which the nucleon resides, and which then must be traversed by the interaction's final-state particles.…”

Neutrinos and their interactions

“…Neutrino-nucleon reactions in the resonance region have been studied by Sato [37] using a dynamical coupled channel (DCC) model by restoring full unitarity.…”
