Coherent Neutrino Scattering

The method of fractional occupation probabilities of the orbits is adopted in order to obtain nuclear form factors to be used for reliable cross sections calculations of the dominant coherent neutrino-nucleus reaction channel. To this purpose, the multipole decomposition method of Donnelly-Walecka is employed. The response of the 48Ti nucleus in solar and Supernova neutrino detection is investigated through our realistic nuclear structure cross sections calculations, based on the solution of the BCS equations. The present results indicate that the momentum dependence of the nuclear form factors cannot be neglected from the cross section, especially in the energy region of Supernova neutrinos (or for neutrinos having higher energies), because differences of even orders of magnitude may occur.

In this paper, we study the class of the processes, where dynamics depends essentially on the properties of the hadron wave functions involved in the reactions. In this case, the momentum dependence of the form of the wave functions, imposed by the Lorentz invariance and in particular by the Lorentz contraction, can be tested in the experiment and may strongly influence the resulting cross-sections. One example of such observables is given by the hadron form factors in the case when the large [Formula: see text] behavior is mostly frozen, while the Lorentz contraction of the hadron wave functions is taken into account. Another example, considered earlier, is the strong hadron decay with high-energy emission. In this paper, we study the role of the Lorentz contraction in the high-energy hadron–hadron scattering process at large momentum transfer. For the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] scattering at large [Formula: see text], it is shown that at small [Formula: see text], the picture of two exponential slopes in the differential cross-section, explained previously by the author, remains stable, while the backward scattering cross-section is strongly increased by the Lorentz contraction.

Event Rates

The total cross sections as well as the neutrino event rates are calculated in the neutral current neutrino scattering off40Ar and132Xe isotopes at neutrino energies (Ev<100 MeV). The individual contribution coming from coherent and incoherent channels is taking into account. An enhancement of the neutral current component is achieved via the coherent (0gs+→0gs+) channel which is dominant with respect to incoherent (0gs+→Jf) one. The response of the above isotopes as a supernova neutrino detection has been considered, assuming a two parameter Fermi-Dirac distribution for the supernova neutrino energy spectra. The calculated total cross sections are tested on a gaseous spherical TPC detector dedicated for supernova neutrino detection.

The differential cross section for the Rhodium and Tantalum has been calculated by using the Cross Section Calculations (CSC) in range of energy(1keV-1MeV) . This calculations based on the programming of the Klein-Nashina and Rayleigh Equations. Atomic form factors as well as the coherent functions in Fortran90 language Machine proved very fast an accurate results and the possibility of application of such model to obtain the total coefficient for any elements or compounds.

ABSTRACTOptical and photoelectron spectroscopies using VUV and Soft X-ray photons are powerful tools for studies of elemental and compound actinides. Large changes in the relative atomic cross sections of the 5f, 6d and sp electrons allow decomposition of the character of the valence bands using photoemission. Resonant enhancement of photoelectrons and Auger electrons at the 5d core threshold further aids the decomposition and gives a measure of elemental specificity. Angle-resolved photoemission can be used to map the momentum dependence of the electronic states. The large changes in relative cross section with photon energy yields further details when the mapping is done at equivalent points in multiple zones. Spectra for well understood rare earth materials will be presented to establish spectral characteristics for known atomic character initial states. These signatures will be applied to the case of USb to investigate f-d hybridization near the Fermi level.

New standard (n,f) cross sections other than 235U are important to study the relevant cross sections for Generation-IV power plants. A specific need for such standards is for performing new experiments with quasimonoenergetic neutron beams, such as those produced by Van de Graaf accelerators. Neutrons down-scattered to low energies in the experimental environment, so called room-return, become relevant for this type of measurements. Hence, a standard (n,f) cross section with a fission threshold is of great interest, in order to suppress the contribution from room-return background. For this reason we have performed two experiments at the VDG of the National Physical Laboratory to measure absolutely the (n,f) cross sections of 235U, 238U and 237Np in the fast neutron energy region. Our preliminary results are in agreement with the most up-to-date evaluations.

The leakage neutron spectra measurements have been done on benchmark spherical assemblies with Cf-252 source in center of 1) heavy water sphere with diameter of 30 cm (with Cd cover) and of 2) iron spheres with diameter of 100 cm and 50 cm. It has been stated for years that transport calculations by iron overestimate measured spectra in energy region around 300 keV by about 20-40 % (calculation to measurement ratio C/E = 1.2-1.4). The influence of an artificial changes in cross-section XS-Fe-56 (n,elastic)designed by IAEA, Nuclear Data Section, has been studied on the iron spheres. Influence of those XS-corrections to calculated neutron spectrum is presented.

In this paper, we have studied (anti)neutrino induced charged current quasielastic (CCQE) scattering from some nuclear targets in the energy region of [Formula: see text]. Our aim is to confront electron and muon production cross-sections relevant for [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] oscillation experiments. The effects due to lepton mass and its kinematic implications, radiative corrections, second class currents (SCCs) and uncertainties in the axial and pseudoscalar form factors are calculated for (anti)neutrino induced reaction cross-sections on free nucleon as well as the nucleons bound in a nucleus where nuclear medium effects influence the cross-section. For the nuclear medium effects, we have taken some versions of Fermi gas model (FGM) available in the literature. The results for (anti)neutrino–nucleus scattering cross-section per interacting nucleons are compared with the corresponding results in free nucleon case.

Coulomb Distortion

The cross sections for production of electron pairs on Ta and Bi nuclei by photons of energies between 3 and 30 MeV were deduced from total cross sections for photon absorption. Comparison with pair cross section values calculated in the plane-wave approximation and corrected for screening gave experimental values of the further correction required to account for Coulomb distortion. Above 15 MeV the experimental values of the Coulomb correction differ from values calculated using a semi-empirical recipe due to Maximon and Gimm, but agree fairly well with a recipe due to Øverbø up to 20 MeV, where they begin to differ. Either of these Coulomb correction formulas combined with screening corrections calculated using relativistic atomic form factors allows the pair cross section of Ta or Bi to be calculated accurately enough to reproduce the total photon cross section to about 1%. Neither formula can be relied upon to determine an unknown photonuclear cross section to useful accuracy from a measured total cross section.
