Transport study of charged current interactions in neutrino-nucleus reactions

Abstract

Within a dynamical transport approach we investigate charged current interactions in neutrino-nucleus reactions for neutrino energies of 0.3 - 1.5 GeV with particular emphasis on resonant pion production channels via the ${\Delta }_{33}(1232)$ resonance. The final-state-interactions of the resonance as well as of the emitted pions are calculated explicitly for ${}^{12}C$ and ${}^{56}Fe$ nuclei and show a dominance of pion suppression at moderate momenta $p_{\pi }>$ 0.2 GeV/c. A comparison to integrated ${\pi }^{+}$ spectra for ${\nu }_{\mu }{+}^{12}C$ reactions with the available (preliminary) data demonstrates a reasonable agreement.
