Extracting the Weinberg angle at intermediate energies

C. Praet, N. Jachowicz, P. Lava +1

A recent experiment by the NuTeV collaboration resulted in a surprisingly high value for the weak mixing angle . The Paschos-Wolfenstein relation, relating neutrino cr…

A relativistic model for neutrino pion production from nuclei in the resonance region

C. Praet, O. Lalakulich, N. Jachowicz +1

We present a relativistic model for electroweak pion production from nuclei, focusing on the and the second resonance region. Bound states are derived in the Hartree approxima…

Neutrino-induced pion production from nuclei at medium energies

C. Praet, O. Lalakulich, N. Jachowicz +1

We present a fully relativistic formalism for describing neutrino-induced -mediated single-pion production from nuclei. We assess the ambiguities stemming from the interac…

The Paschos-Wolfenstein relation in a hadronic picture

C. Praet, N. Jachowicz, J. Ryckebusch +2

The Paschos-Wolfenstein (PW) relation joins neutral- and charged-current neutrino- and antineutrino-induced cross sections into an expression that depends on the weak mixing angle…

Strangeness content of the nucleon in quasielastic neutrino-nucleus reactions

N. Jachowicz, P. Vancraeyveld, P. Lava +2

We present a systematic study of the sensitivity of quasielastic neutrino-nucleus cross sections at intermediate energies to the strange quark sea of the nucleon. To this end, we i…

The PNLF distance to the Sculptor Group galaxy NGC 55

G. C. Van de Steene, G. H. Jacoby, C. Praet +2

We identified 21 new Planetary Nebula (PN) candidates in the Sculptor Group galaxy NGC 55. We determined a most likely distance of 2.00 +/- 0.2 Mpc using the Planetary Nebulae Lumi…
