Abstract

We have developed a model to describe the interactions of neutrinos with nucleons and nuclei, focusing on the region of the quasielastic and \ensuremathΔ(1232) peaks. We describe neutrino-nucleon collisions with a fully relativistic formalism that incorporates state-of-the-art parametrizations of the form factors for both the nucleon and the N\ensuremath-\ensuremathΔ transition. The model has then been extended to finite nuclei, taking into account nuclear effects such as Fermi motion, Pauli blocking (both within the local density approximation), nuclear binding and final-state interactions. The in-medium modification of the \ensuremathΔ resonance because of Pauli blocking and collisional broadening have also been included. Final-state interactions are implemented by means of the Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (BUU) coupled-channel transport model. Results for charged current inclusive cross sections and exclusive channels as pion production and nucleon knockout are presented and discussed.
