Neutrino-nucleus quasifree neutral current reactions and the nucleon strange quark content

Differential cross sections for neutrino- (and antineutrino-) induced nucleon knockout are calculated for neutral-current reactions from nuclei. A relativistic Fermi gas model with binding energy corrections is used. We examine the accuracy with which strange quark axial and vector current parameter...

Description
Summary:Differential cross sections for neutrino- (and antineutrino-) induced nucleon knockout are calculated for neutral-current reactions from nuclei. A relativistic Fermi gas model with binding energy corrections is used. We examine the accuracy with which strange quark axial and vector current parameters can be extracted from both existing and (possible) future experiments. Both high (above 1 GeV) and low (near 150 MeV) neutrino energies and the knockout of neutrons and protons are considered.
