Abstract

The phenomenon of diffractive dissociation is experimentally estimated for neutrino interaction with photoemulsion nuclei. The results are based on data obtained in the SCIP experiment performed in a neutrino beam at the U-70 accelerator (Protvino). The data sample subjected to analysis included 670 charged-current events corresponding to neutrino interactions in the vertex detector. Events in which the Bjorken variable was x=0–0.1 were selected from this sample. Upon going over to the variable x′, which takes into account the nucleon mass, we set an upper limit of 0.53±0.07 on the diffractive-dissociation contribution to the total charged-current cross section.
