Neutral Current Induced Reactions in Nuclei at Supernova Neutrino Energies
Abstract
We calculate cross sections for the neutral current induced neutrino/antineutrino reaction from 208Pb target and applied it to study Supernova neutrino event rates. The calculations are done in local density approximation taking into account Pauli blocking, Fermi motion effects and renormalization of weak transition strengths in the nuclear medium. The numerical results for the neutrino nucleus total cross sections have been averaged over the various Supernova neutrino/antineutrino fluxes available in literature.
