The total v μ N charged current cross section in the energy interval 10–50 GeV is unfolded from 15' bubble chamber antineutrino data. The method is to isolate the quasielastic events and determine their relative contribution to the overall charged current sample. The scale parameter is found to be (0.29 ± 0.03) × 10 −38 cm 2 GeV −1 . Relevance of the method for neutrino oscillation studies is discussed.

DETERMINATION OF THE NEUTRAL TO CHARGED CURRENT CROSS-SECTION RATIO FOR ANTI-NEUTRINOS INTERACTIONS ON PROTONS

The BEBC TST NEUTRINO collaboration Moreels, J. ; Van Doninck, W. ; Alamatsaz, H. ; et al.

An exposure of BEBC equipped with the hydrogen-filled TST to the v μ wide band beam at the CERN SPS has been used to study v μ interactions on free protons. About neutral induced interactions have been observed inside the hydrogen and separated into charged current, neutral current and neutral hadron interactions using a multivariate discriminant analysis based on the kinematics of the events. The neutral to charged current cross-section ratio has been determined to be R p v = 0.33 ± 0.04 . When combined with the value of R p v previously determined in the same experiment, the result is compatible with the prediction of the standard SU (2) × U (1) model for sin 2 θ W = 0.24 −0.08 +0.06 and ρ = 1.07 −0.08 +0.06 . Fixing the parameter ρ = 1 yields sin 2 θ W = 0.18 ± 0.04.

NEUTRAL STRANGE PARTICLE PRODUCTION IN ANTI-NEUTRINOS INDUCED NEUTRAL CURRENT INTERACTIONS

Asratian, A.E. ; Efremenko, V.I. ; Fedotov, A.V. ; et al.

Phys.Lett.B 140 (1984) 127-129, 1984.

Inspire Record 200832 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.10145

The study of neutral strange particle production in antineutrino-induced neutral current interactions is presented. The total multiplicity of neutral strange particles and the K 0 multiplicity in the current fragmentation region ( z >0.3) are used to estimate in two ways the coupling strength of the weak neutral current to the strange quark.

A Comparison of Charged Current Cross-sections and Structure Functions for Neutrino and Anti-neutrinos Beams on Hydrogen and Neon

The BEBC TST Neutrino collaboration Parker, M.A. ; Francois, T. ; Guy, J.G. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 232 (1984) 1-20, 1984.

Inspire Record 192873 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33899

Using BEBC equipped with a hydrogen-filled neon-surrounded track-sensitive target, the charged current cross sections and structure functions of hydrogen and neon targets traversed by the same neutrinos and antineutrinos are compared directly. The measured total cross-section ratios between hydrogen and neon allow precise total cross-section values for hydrogen to be inferred. Using this normalization, the ν and ν hydrogen data are combined and the quark distributions in free nucleons, parametrised as functions of ξ, are extracted. This free-nucleon parametrisation is then compared directly with the neon data in order to measure nuclear effects such as those recently reported by the EMC collaboration. Only small effects are seen, in excellent agreement with recent SLAC data in a more similar A and q 2 range.
