Nuclear Attenuation of Fast Hadrons Produced in Charged-Current Neutrino and Antineutrino Interactions in Neon


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The production of hadrons in charged-current (anti)neutrino interactions is studied with the bubble chamber BEBC exposed ot the CERN (anti)neutrino wide-band beam. Fast-hadron production in a neon target is found to be attennuated as compared to that in a hydrogen target. This feature is discussed within the theoretical models based on the idea of a hadron formation length. The experimental results favour the `constituent over the `yo-yo length concept, and suggest a quark cross-section in the order of 3mb.
