Quasielastic nucleon and hyperon production by neutrinos and antineutrinos with energies below 30 GeV

The cross sections of neutrino and antineutrino quasielastic reactions \(vn \to \mu ^ - p,\bar vp \to \mu ^ + n,\bar vp \to \mu ^ + \Lambda\) were studied in the neutrino energy range between 3 and 30 GeV. In comparison withV-A theory axial mass parameters ofM _A =(1.06±0.05±0.14) GeV/c² from neutrino andM _A =(0.71±0.10±0.20) GeV/c² from antineutrino data were found. The total cross-section for the hyperon production process can be described byM _A =1.0 GeV/c².     

Final results on μe-pair production in neutrino interactions in the SKAT freon bubble chamber experiment

We present the final results from the search for μe pairs produced in neutrino interactions using the freon filled bubble chamber SKAT. The rate of μ^? e ⁺ pairs to charged current events above the charm threshold is \(R_{\mu ^ - e^ + } = (4.8 \pm 1.1)10^{ - 3} \) . Assuming charm particle production to be the origin of the positron we calculate \(R_{\Lambda _c^ + } = (6.2 \pm 3.1)10^{ - 2} \) andR _D =(2.8±0.9)10^?2. We observe no considerable μ^? e ^? pair production above the background. In the regionE _v >3 GeV,p _μ,e >1.0 GeV/c andp _μ>p _e we find with a 90% confidence level the limit \(R_{\mu ^ - e^ - }< 1.7 10^{ - 4} \) .     

Properties of multiplicity distributions in νA and\bar v A intersections atE_{\begin{array}{*{20}c} {( - )} \\ v \\ \end{array} }< 30GeV

We present data on the multiplicity structure of inclusive charged hadron production in charged current neutrino and antineutrino freon interactions in the energy range 3–30 GeV resulting from an experiment with the bubble chamber SKAT. Average multiplicities, dispersions and correlation coefficients are investigated. Furthermore, KNO-scaling is studied and average net charges are calculated in different kinematical regions. Our data are compared with results from \(\begin{array}{*{20}c} {( - )} \\ v \\ \end{array} \) -interactions on an isoscalar target of “free” nucleons to study the influence of nuclear effects.     

Study of K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e \gamma decay with ISTRA+ setup

Results of study of the $K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu \gamma $ decay at the ISTRA+ setup are presented. We observed 4476 events of this decay. The branching ratio is found to be $R = \frac{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e \gamma )}}{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e )}}$ = (1.81±0.03(stat.)±0.07(syst.)) × 10^?2 for E*_γ > 10 MeV and θ*_eγ > 10°. For comparison with the previous experiment the branching ratio with cuts E*_γ > 10 MeV, 0.6 < cos θ*_eγ < 0.9 is calculated: R = $\frac{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e \gamma )}}{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e )}}$ = (0.47±0.02(stat.) ± 0.03(syst.)) × 10^?2. For the cuts E*_γ > 30 MeV and θ*_eγ > 20°, used in most theoretical papers, Br = (3.06 ± 0.09(stat.) ± 0.14(syst.)) × 10^?4. For the asymmetry we get A _ξ = ?0.015 ± 0.021. At present it is the best estimate of this asymmetry.     

Neutral strange particle production in charged current νA-interactions in the energy range 3≦E ν≦30 GeV

For charged current neutrino nucleus interactions at energies below 30 GeV, resulting from an experiment with the freon filled bubble chamber SKAT,K ⁰ and Λ production is investigated. An estimation of the total strange and charm production cross section is made.K ⁰ and Λ production rates are given in dependence on different inclusive variables. The production properties forK ⁰′s and Λ′s are discussed in terms of the Quark-Parton-Model. Comparisons with other ν-experiments at higher energies are performed.

Cross-section measurements of single pion production in charged current neutrino and antineutrino interactions

All six exclusive single pion production processes from neutrino and antineutrino charged current interactions are studied in the energy range between 3 and 30 GeV. Using a quark model for single pion production from Rein and Sehgal we fitted the aximal mass parameter from total cross sections and compare the results with values from other experiments and the world-averages.
