Lepton production cross sections in quasielastic $ν/\barν-$A scattering

Abstract

We present the results of (anti)neutrino induced CCQE cross sections from some nuclear targets in the energy region of $E_ν\le 1 GeV$. The aim of the study is to confront electron and muon production cross sections relevant for $ν_μ\leftrightarrow ν_e$ or $\barν_μ\leftrightarrow \barν_e$ oscillation experiments. The effects due to lepton mass and its kinematic implications, second class currents and uncertainties in the axial and pseudoscalar form factors are discussed for (anti)neutrino induced reaction cross sections on free nucleon as well as the nucleons bound in a nucleus where nuclear medium effects influence the cross section. The calculations have been performed using local Fermi gas model with nucleon correlation effects. The details are given in Ref.[1].
