In neutrino-nucleus interactions, a proton produced with a correlated pion might exhibit a left-right asymmetry relative to the lepton scattering plane even when the pion is absorbed. Absent in other proton production mechanisms, such an…

The S-matrix approach is applied to charged and neutral pion production in pp collisions, in which the spin/isospin channels filter differently the rescattering mechanism. The chiral perturbation theory rescattering amplitude is employed.…
Current long baseline experiments aim at measuring neutrino oscillation parameters with a high precision. A critical quantity is the neutrino energy which can not be measured directly but has to be reconstructed from the observed hadrons. A…
