Quasi-elastic and inelastic inclusive electron scattering from an oxygen jet target

Abstract

The results of an experiment on inclusive electron scattering from an oxygen jet target, performed in a wide range of energy and momentum transfer covering both quasi-elastic and ∆(1232) resonance regions, are reported. In the former region the theoretical predictions, obtained including effects of nucleon-nucleon correlations in both initial and final states, give a good description of the experimental data. In the inelastic region a broadening as well as a damping of the resonant part of the cross section with respect to the free nucleon case is observed. The need of more detailed calculations including nuclear structure effects on the electroproduction cross section of nucleon resonances is highlighted.

Low-energy excitations and quasielastic contribution to electron-nucleus and neutrino-nucleus scattering in the continuum random-phase approximation

“…6. Our numerical calculations reasonably describe the QE parts of the measurements performed at ADONE [57] and at the Bates Linear Accelerator Center [52]. Further, the calculations for the heavier target 40 Ca are presented in Fig.…”

Antisymmetrized random phase approximation for quasi-elastic scattering in nuclear matter: Non-relativistic potentials

“…Quasielastic electron scattering on nuclei has been in the past years the subject of intense experimental [1][2][3] and theoretical (see, e. g., Refs. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]) investigations.…”

Numerical implementation of lepton-nucleus interactions and its effect on neutrino oscillation analysis

“…In all cases, the reconstructed neutrino energy is calculated assuming a pure QE event and according to Eq. (23). Figure 22 shows the migration matrices for the QE and QE-like for neutrino interactions on 12 C. The three QE matrices (22(a), 22(b) and 22(c)) were computed using GENIE 2.8.0 and GENIE 2.8.0 + νT with RFGM and SF as nuclear models.…”

“…The data, taken from Refs. [23,24] and available online at http://faculty.virginia.edu/qes-archive/index.html, are not corrected to remove the effects of FSI.…”

“…We reconstruct the neutrino energy for all QE-like events assuming a pure QE neutrino interaction as in Eq. (23). The migration matrices used in this work were produced using both GENIE 2.8.0 and GENIE 2.8.0 + νT .…”
