Neutral current (anti)neutrino scattering: Relativistic mean field and superscaling predictions

We evaluate the neutral current quasi-elastic neutrino cross section within two nuclear models: the SuSA model, based on the superscaling behavior of electron scattering data, and the RMF model, based on relativistic mean field theory. We also estimate the ratio (νp→νp)/(νN→νN) and compare with the...

Sumario:We evaluate the neutral current quasi-elastic neutrino cross section within two nuclear models: the SuSA model, based on the superscaling behavior of electron scattering data, and the RMF model, based on relativistic mean field theory. We also estimate the ratio (νp→νp)/(νN→νN) and compare with the MiniBooNE experimental data, performing a fit of the parameters MA and gA(s) within the two models. Finally, we present our predictions for antineutrino scattering
