Abstract
We discuss the electron and muon neutrino and antineutrino double-differential cross sections on carbon in the quasielastic as well as in the multinucleon and one pion production channels. By projecting them in the transferred momentum—transferred energy plane and in the neutrino energy—lepton scattering angle plane, as well as by performing simple considerations on the position of the quasielastic and Delta peaks and on their broadening, we explain the surprising dominance of the muon neutrino and antineutrino cross sections over the electron ones in particular kinematical conditions.
期刊介绍:
Physical Review C (PRC) is a leading journal in theoretical and experimental nuclear physics, publishing more than two-thirds of the research literature in the field.
PRC covers experimental and theoretical results in all aspects of nuclear physics, including:
Nucleon-nucleon interaction, few-body systems
Nuclear structure
Nuclear reactions
Relativistic nuclear collisions
Hadronic physics and QCD
Electroweak interaction, symmetries
Nuclear astrophysics
