Extraction of R=sigmaL/sigmaT from CCFR Neutrino and Antinetrino Differential Cross Sections
Abstract
We report on the extraction of R=sigamL/sigmaT from CCFR neutrino and antineutrino-Iron differential cross sections. R as measured in neutrno scattering is in agreement with R as measured in muon and electron scattering. All data on R for Q2 > 1 GeV2 are in agreement with a NNLO QCD calculation which uses NNLO PDFs and includes target mass effects. We report on the first measurements of R in the low x and Q2 < 1 GeV2 region (where an anomalous large rise in R for nuclear targets has been observed by the HERMES collaboration).
