Neutrino and antineutrino charged-current inclusive scattering in iron in the energy range 20<E v <300 GeV

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

Inclusive charged-current interactions of high-energy neutrinos and antineutrinos have been studied with high statistics in a counter experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The energy dependence of the total cross-sections, the longitudinal structure function, and the nucleon structure functionsF 2,xF 3, and\(\bar q^{\bar v} \) are determined from these data. The analysis of theQ 2-dependence of the structure functions is used to test quantum chromodynamics, to determine the scale parameter Λ and the gluon distribution in the nucleon.
