Approximations of the spectral function

The ICARUS and future liquid argon neutrino experiments generate demand for evaluating the spectral function of argon. In this paper we use oxygen nucleus as a testing ground for our phenomenological approach to the spectral function and probe the influence of momentum distribution and treatment of the mean field spectral function on the differential cross sections. The obtained model reproduces very well results of the exact spectral function of oxygen and can be applied to heavier nuclei, such as calcium or argon.

High-energy limit of neutrino quasielastic cross section

It's a common knowledge that the quasielastic neutrino-neutron and antineutrino-proton cross sections tend to the same constant as (anti)neutrino energy becomes high. In this paper we calculate the exact expression of the limit in terms of the parameters describing quasielastic scattering. We check that even at very high energies only small absolute values of the four-momentum transfer contribute to the cross section, hence the Fermi theory can be applied. The dipole approximation of the form factors allows to perform analytic calculations. Obtained results are neutrino-flavour independent.
