    Comparison of predictions for nuclear effects in the Marteau model with the NUX+FLUKA scheme

    Full text link
    Nuclear effects in neutrino-nucleus reactions simulated by means of the NUX+FLUKA Monte Carlo generator are compared with the theoretical predictions of the Marteau model. Pion absorption in NUX+FLUKA and non-pionic Delta decays in the Marteau model differ by about 30%. The fraction of pions produced due to the re-interactions after primary quasi-elastic vertex is in the NUX+FLUKA scheme much higher then provided by the Marteau model.Comment: 6 pages, 8 figures, Presented by J.A.

    Classification of Low Dimensional Lie Super-Bialgebras

    Full text link
    A thorough analysis of Lie super-bialgebra structures on Lie super-algebras osp(1|2) and super-e(2) is presented. Combined technique of computer algebraic computations and a subsequent identification of equivalent structures is applied. In all the cases Poisson-Lie brackets on supergroups are found. Possibility of quantizing them in order to obtain quantum groups is discussed. It turns out to be straightforward for all but one structures for super-E(2) group.Comment: 15 pages, LaTe

    Quantum E(2) groups and Lie bialgebra structures

    Full text link
    Lie bialgebra structures on e(2)e(2) are classified. For two Lie bialgebra structures which are not coboundaries (i.e. which are not determined by a classical rr-matrix) we solve the cocycle condition, find the Lie-Poisson brackets and obtain quantum group relations. There is one to one correspondence between Lie bialgebra structures on e(2)e(2) and possible quantum deformations of U(e(2))U(e(2)) and E(2)E(2).Comment: 8 pages, plain TEX, harvmac, to appear in J.

    Recently proposed Transverse Enhancement Model of nuclear effects in Charge Current Quasi-Elastic neutrino scattering [A. Bodek, H. S. Budd, and M. E. Christy, Eur. Phys. J. C{\bf 71} (2011) 1726] is confronted with the MiniBooNE high statistics experimental data. It is shown that the {\it effective} large axial mass model leads to better agreement with the data.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure

    Stochastic contribution to the growth factor in the LCDM model

    Full text link
    We study the effect of noise on the evolution of the growth factor of density perturbations in the context of the LCDM model. Stochasticity is introduced as a Wiener process amplified by an intensity parameter alpha. By comparing the evolution of deterministic and stochastic cases for different values of alpha we estimate the intensity level necessary to make noise relevant for cosmological tests based on large-scale structure data. Our results indicate that the presence of random forces underlying the fluid description can lead to significant deviations from the nonstochastic solution at late times for alpha>0.001.Comment: 6 pages, 1 figur

    Wroclaw neutrino event generator

    Get PDF
    A neutrino event generator developed by the Wroclaw Neutrino Group is described. The physical models included in the generator are discussed and illustrated with the results of simulations. The considered processes are quasi-elastic scattering and pion production modelled by combining the Δ\Delta resonance excitation and deep inelastic scattering.Comment: Talk given at 2nd Scandanavian Neutrino Workshop (SNOW 2006), Stockholm, Sweden, 2-6 May 2006. 3 pages, 6 figure

    C5AC_5^A axial form factor from bubble chamber experiments

    Full text link
    A careful reanalysis of both Argonne National Laboratory and Brookhaven National Laboratory data for weak single pion production is done. We consider deuteron nuclear effects and normalization (flux) uncertainties in both experiments. We demonstrate that these two sets of data are in good agreement. For the dipole parametrization of C5A(Q2)C_5^A(Q^2), we obtain C5A(0)=1.19±0.08C_5^A(0)=1.19\pm 0.08, MA=0.94±0.03M_A=0.94\pm 0.03 GeV. As an application we present the discussion of the uncertainty of the neutral current 1π0\pi^0 production cross section, important for the T2K neutrino oscillation experiment.Comment: 16 pages, 8 figures, 2 table

    Collapse models with non-white noises

    Full text link
    We set up a general formalism for models of spontaneous wave function collapse with dynamics represented by a stochastic differential equation driven by general Gaussian noises, not necessarily white in time. In particular, we show that the non-Schrodinger terms of the equation induce the collapse of the wave function to one of the common eigenstates of the collapsing operators, and that the collapse occurs with the correct quantum probabilities. We also develop a perturbation expansion of the solution of the equation with respect to the parameter which sets the strength of the collapse process; such an approximation allows one to compute the leading order terms for the deviations of the predictions of collapse models with respect to those of standard quantum mechanics. This analysis shows that to leading order, the ``imaginary'' noise trick can be used for non-white Gaussian noise.Comment: Latex, 20 pages;references added and minor revisions; published as J. Phys.

    Final State Interactions Effects in Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions

    Full text link
    Final State Interactions effects are discussed in the context of Monte Carlo simulations of neutrino-nucleus interactions. A role of Formation Time is explained and several models describing this effect are compared. Various observables which are sensitive to FSI effects are reviewed including pion-nucleus interaction and hadron yields in backward hemisphere. NuWro Monte Carlo neutrino event generator is described and its ability to understand neutral current π0\pi^0 production data in 1\sim 1 GeV neutrino flux experiments is demonstrated.Comment: 13 pages, 16 figure

    Information dynamics: Temporal behavior of uncertainty measures

    Full text link
    We carry out a systematic study of uncertainty measures that are generic to dynamical processes of varied origins, provided they induce suitable continuous probability distributions. The major technical tool are the information theory methods and inequalities satisfied by Fisher and Shannon information measures. We focus on a compatibility of these inequalities with the prescribed (deterministic, random or quantum) temporal behavior of pertinent probability densities.Comment: Incorporates cond-mat/0604538, title, abstract changed, text modified, to appear in Cent.
