Measurements of the reactions 12C + nue -> e- + 12N g.s. and 12C + nue -> e- + 12N

Abstract

Charged current reactions of nue on 12C have been studied using a mu decay-at-rest nue beam from the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility. More than 500 events from the exclusive reaction 12C + nue -> e- + 12N g.s. were measured in a large Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector (LSND). The observed energy dependence of the cross section and the angular distribution of the outgoing electron agree well with theoretical expectations. Measurements are also presented for inclusive transitions to 12N excited states, 12C + nue -> e- + 12N and compared with theoretical expectations. Results are consistent with a recent Continuum Random Phase Approximation (CRPA) calculation.
