Multiplicity distributions of charged hadrons produced in (anti)neutrino-deuterium charged- and neutral-current interactions

Mean charged multiplicities in charged-current neutrino scattering on hydrogen and deuterium

“…[37] (CERN BEBC WA25, νn), which is not overruled by the final statistics result of the WA25 experiment reported in Ref. [39]. We note that the earlier WA25 data from Ref.…”

“…The mean charged-hadron multiplicity in the muon neutrino and antineutrino charged-current reactions on hydrogen and deuterium has been measured in the Fermilab experiments E31 [14][15][16][17][18][19][20], E45 [21][22][23][24], and E545 [25][26][27] with the 15 ft bubble chamber and in the CERN experiments WA21 [28][29][30][31][32][33][34] and WA25 [35][36][37][38][39] with the Big European Bubble Chamber (BEBC). The data obtained with the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) and BNL hydrogen bubble chambers before 1976 are gathered in Ref.…”

“…Namely, we include in the statistical analysis the data from Refs. [16,22,27,34,39] and acceptable subsamples of data from Refs. [30,33,37].…”

Tuning of the Charged Hadrons Multiplicities for Deep Inelastic Interactions in NEUT

“…Based on the review of the different experiments done in [8], we use data from two publications: one from the Fermilab 15' bubble chamber containing measurements for neutrino interactions [3], and one from the Big European Bubble Chamber containing measurements for both neutrinos and anti-neutrinos [2]. Some of the fits are shown as examples in figure 2 …”

“…For neutrinos of a few GeV, they are affected by the multiplicities of charged hadrons, in particular charged pions, produced in deep inelastic (DIS) interactions. In this paper we describe a method to tune the predictions of the neutrino interaction generator NEUT [1], so that the events generated follow the charged hadrons multiplicity distributions measured by deuterium bubble chamber experiments [2,3].…”
