Relativistic Green’s function model and charged-current inclusive neutrino-nucleus scattering at T2K kinematics

We compare the results of the relativistic Green’s function model with the experimental data of the charged-current inclusive differential neutrino-nucleus cross sections published by the T2K Collaboration. The model, which is able to describe both $\mathrm{MINER}\nu \mathrm{A}$ and MiniBooNE charged-current quasielastic scattering data, underpredicts the inclusive T2K cross sections.

Figure 1

Flux-unfolded CCQE ${\nu }_{\mu }$ cross sections per target neutron versus the neutrino energy. The experimental data are from MiniBooNE [4] and T2K [43].

Figure 2

Flux-averaged CC-inclusive double differential ${\nu }_{\mu }$ cross sections per target nucleon as a function of the muon momentum. The data are from T2K [42].

Figure 3

Flux-averaged CC-inclusive ${\nu }_e$ differential cross section per nucleon as a function of $\cos \theta$. Only electrons corresponding to $p>0.550\mathrm{GeV}/c$ and $\cos \theta >0.72$ are considered [46]. The T2K data can be found at [45].

Figure 4

Flux-averaged CC-inclusive ${\nu }_e$ differential cross section per target nucleon as a function of the electron momentum. Only electrons corresponding to $p>0.550\mathrm{GeV}/c$ and $\cos \theta >0.72$ are considered [46]. The T2K data can be found at [45].
