摘要:

我们利用具有完全成像的终态质子-π0系统的事件,研究了碳核上中微子诱导的带电流(CC)π0产生。基于横向运动学不平衡的终态关联的新颖应用,首次测量了被撞击核子的费米运动、核内动量转移(IMT)动力学,以及中微子π介子产生中的终态强子动量构型。给出了以下事件分布:i)费米面以下中微子撞击中子的动量,ii)表征IMT强度的缺失横向动量方向,iii)相对于轻子散射平面的质子-π介子动量不平衡。将观测到的费米运动和IMT强度与之前MINERvA对中微子CC准弹性样产生的测量结果进行了比较。这些分布的测量形状和绝对产率,以及截面不对称性,与当前中微子发生器模型的预测存在张力。

英文摘要:

We study neutrino-induced charged-current (CC) $π^0$ production on carbon nuclei using events with fully imaged final-state proton-$π^0$ systems. Novel use of final-state correlations based on transverse kinematic imbalance enable the first measurements of the struck nucleon's Fermi motion, of the intranuclear momentum transfer (IMT) dynamics, and of the final-state hadronic momentum configuration in neutrino pion production. Event distributions are presented for i) the momenta of neutrino-struck neutrons below the Fermi surface, ii) the direction of missing transverse momentum characterizing the strength of IMT, and iii) proton-pion momentum imbalance with respect to the lepton scattering plane. The observed Fermi motion and IMT strength are compared to the previous MINERvA measurement of neutrino CC quasielastic-like production. The measured shapes and absolute rates of these distributions, as well as the cross-section asymmetries show tensions with predictions from current neutrino generator models.
