Neutron and proton spectral functions of $^{40}$Ar, $^{40}$Ca, and $^{48}$Ti isotopes are computed using the ab initio self-consistent Greens function approach. The resulting radii and charge distributions are in good agreement with available experimental data. The spectral functions of Ar and Ti are then utilized to calculate inclusive ($e$,$e$) cross sections within a factorization scheme and are found to correctly reproduce the recent Jefferson Lab measurements. Based on these successful agreements, the weak charged and neutral current double-differential cross sections for neutrino-$^{40}$Ar scattering are predicted in the quasielastic region. Results obtained by replacing the (experimentally inaccessible) neutron spectral distribution of $^{40}$Ar with the (experimentally accessible) proton distribution of $^{48}$Ti are compared and the accuracy of this approximation is assessed.

We present a model for electron- and neutrino-scattering off nucleons and nuclei focussing on the quasielastic and resonance region. The lepton-nucleon reaction is described within a relativistic formalism that includes, besides quasielastic scatteri ng, the excitation of 13 N* and Delta resonances and a non-resonant single-pion background. Recent electron-scattering data is used for the state-of-the-art parametrizations of the vector form factors; the axial couplings are determined via PCAC and, in the case of the Delta resonance, the axial form factor is refitted using neutrino-scattering data. Scattering off nuclei is treated within the GiBUU framework that takes into account various nuclear effects: the local density approximation for the nuclear ground state, mean-field potentials and in-medium spectral functions. Results for inclusive scattering off Oxygen are presented and, in the case of electron-induced reactions, compared to experimental data and other models.
We show that the quasielastic (QE) response calculated with the SuSAv2 (superscaling approach) model, that relies on the scaling phenomenon observed in the analysis of (e,e) data and on the relativistic mean-field theory, is very similar to that from a relativistic distorted wave impulse approximation model when only the real part of the optical potentials is employed. The coincidence between the results from these two completely independent approaches, which satisfactorily agree with the inclusive data, reinforces the reliability of the quasielastic predictions stemming from both models and sets constraints for the QE response. We also study the low energy and momentum transfer region of the inclusive response by confronting the results of the relativistic mean-field model with those of the Hartree-Fock continuum random-phase approximation model, which accounts for nuclear long-range correlations. Finally, we present a comparison of our results with the recent JLab (e,e) data for argon, titanium and carbon, finding good agreement with the three data sets.

With the framework of KIDS (Korea-IBS-Daegu-SKKU) density functional model, the isoscalar and isovector effective masses of nucleon and the effect of symmetry energy in nuclear medium are investigated in inclusive (e, e) reaction in quasielastic regi on. The effective masses are varied in the range (0.7 - 1.0)M with free nucleon mass M, and the symmetry energy is varied within the uncertainty allowed by nuclear data and neutron star observation. The wave functions of nucleons inside target nucleus are generated by solving Hartree-Fock equation with adjusting equation of state, binding energy and radius of various stable nuclei, and effective mass of nucleon in the KIDS model. With the obtained wave functions, we calculate the differential cross section for the inclusive (e, e) reaction and compare the theoretical results with Bates, Saclay, and SLAC experimental data. Our model describes experimental data better at SLAC-type high incident electron energy than those measured from Bates and Saclay. The influence of the effective mass and symmetry energy appears to be precise on the longitudinal cross section.
We present a covariant extension of the relativistic Fermi gas model which incorporates correlation effects in nuclei. Within this model, inspired by the BCS descriptions of systems of fermions, we obtain the nuclear spectral function and from it the superscaling function for use in treating high-energy quasielastic electroweak processes. Interestingly, this model has the capability to yield the asymmetric tail seen in the experimental scaling function.
Neutrino oscillation probabilities, which are being measured in long-baseline experiments, depend on neutrino energy. The energy in a neutrino beam, however, is broadly smeared so that the neutrino energy in a particular event is not directly known, but must be reconstructed from final state properties. In this paper we investigate the contributions from different reaction mechanisms on the energy-reconstruction method widely used in long-baseline neutrino experiments. Difference between the true-QE and QE-like cross sections in MiniBooNE experiment is investigated in details. It is shown, that fake QE-like events lead to significant distortions in neutrino energy reconstruction. Flux-folded and unfolded cross sections for QE-like scattering are calculated as functions of both true and reconstructed energies. Flux-folded momentum transfer distributions are calculated as functions of both true and reconstructed momentum transfer. Distributions versus reconstructed values are compared with the experimental data. Also presented are the conditional probability densities of finding a true energy for a given reconstructed energy. It is shown, how the energy reconstruction procedure influences the measurement of oscillation parameters in T2K experiment. For the reconstruction procedure based on quasielastic (QE) kinematics, all other reaction channels beside true-QE scattering show a shift of the reconstructed energy towards lower values as compared to the true energy. On average in the MiniBooNE and T2K experiments the shift is 100 - 200 MeV and depends on energy. The oscillation signals are similarly affected. These uncertainties may limit the extraction of a CP violating phase from an oscillation result.
