Abstract:
We report the results of a study of neutrino-carbon interactions at beam energies ranging between a few hundred MeV's and a few tens of GeVs carried out within the framework of the impulse approximation using a realistic spectral function. The contributions of quasielastic scattering, resonance production, and deep inelastic scattering-consistently obtained, for the first time, from a model based on a realistic description of the nuclear ground state-are compared and analyzed.
