A systematic study of neutrino-nucleus reaction rates at low and intermediate energies are presented and discussed, focusing on the even-even Mo isotopes. Contributions coming from both the vector and axial-vector components of the corresponding hadronic currents have been included. The response of these detectors to supernova neutrino is also studied, by exploiting the above results and utilizing the folding procedure assuming a two parameter Fermi-Dirac distribution for the supernova neutrino energy-spectra.

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.

Inelastic neutrino-nucleus reaction cross sections are studied focusing on the neutral current processes. Particularly, we investigate the angular and initial neutrino-energy dependence of the differential and integrated cross sections for low and intermediate energies of the incoming neutrino (or antineutrino). Contributions coming from both, the vector and axial-vector components of the corresponding hadronic currents have been included. The initial and final state nuclear wave-functions have been calculated in the context of the Quasi-particle Random Phase Approximation (QRPA) tested on the reproducibility of the low-lying energy spectrum (up to about 5 MeV) of the studied nuclei. The results presented here refer to the nuclear isotopes 16O and 98Mo. As it is well known, O plays a significant role in supernova evolution phenomena and Mo is used as a target in the MOON neutrino experiment at Japan.

The total cross sections as well as the neutrino event rates are calculated in the charged current neutrino and antineutrino scattering off132Xe isotope at neutrino energiesEv<100 MeV. Transitions to excited nuclear states are calculated in the framework of quasiparticle random-phase approximation. The contributions from different multipoles are shown for various neutrino energies. Flux-averaged cross sections are obtained by convolving the cross sections with a two-parameter Fermi-Dirac distribution. The flux-averaged cross sections are also calculated using terrestrial neutrino sources based on conventional sources (muon decay at rest) or on low-energy beta-beams.

Original cross-sections calculations for neutral current neutrino scattering on 40Ar isotope are performed in the context of the quasi-particle random phase approximation (QRPA) by utilizing realistic two-nucleon forces. The incoming neutrino energy range adopted, εν ≤ 100 MeV, covers the supernova neutrinos, the low-energy beta-beam-neutrinos and the pion-muon stopped neutrino-beams existing or planned to be conducted at future neutron spallation sources. Subsequently, are the original cross sections convoluted with various supernova neutrino-energy distributions such as the two-parameter Fermi-Dirac and the power law distributions. The folded cross sections are obtained for various values of the parameters of these neutrino energy distributions corresponding to different supernova scenarios. One of the main purposes of this work is to explore the response of the 40Ar isotope as supernova neutrino detector.

In this work we perform calculations of the cross sections for neutral-current neutrino scattering off the 95,97Mo isotopes. Both the incoherent and coherent con- tributions to the cross sections are considered. The wave functions of the initial and final nuclear states are constructed in the context of the quasiparticle phonon model (MQPM). The response of the aformentioned nuclei to supernova neutrinos are computed by folding the obtained cross sections with a two-parameter Fermi-Dirac distribution.
