Relativistic descriptions of final-state interactions in charged-current
quasielastic antineutrino-nucleus scattering at MiniBooNE kinematics
   [PDF]

Andrea Meucci, Carlotta Giusti
The analysis of the recent charged-current neutrino-nucleus scattering cross
sections measured by the MiniBooNE Collaboration requires relativistic
theoretical descriptions also accounting for the role of final-state
interactions. In this work, we evaluate differential antineutrino-nucleus cross
sections with the relativistic Green's function model, where the final-state
interactions are described in the inclusive scattering consistently with the
exclusive scattering using a complex optical potential. The sensitivity to the
parameterization adopted for the phenomenological optical potential is
discussed. The predictions of the relativistic Green's function model are
compared with the results of different descriptions of final-state
interactions.
