We construct a model for the weak pion production off the nucleon, which in addition to the weak excitation of the $\Delta(1232)$ resonance and its subsequent decay into $N\pi$, it includes also some background terms required by chiral…
We present a microscopic model for coherent pion production off nuclei induced by neutrinos. This model is built upon a model for single nucleon processes that goes beyond the usual Delta dominance by including non resonant background…

Differences in the photoproduction of mesons on the free proton and on nuclei are expected to reveal changes in the properties of hadrons. Inclusive studies of nuclear photoabsorption have provided evidence of medium modifications. However,…
