Neutrino-induced single pion production and the reanalyzed bubble chamber data

Abstract: In this work we report the calculation of the charged current total and differential cross sections for weak pion-production with neutrinos and antineutrinos, with the final pion-nucleon pair invariant mass $W_{\pi N}\lesssim2$GeV. Our results are compared with the recent reanalyzed data from the old bubble chamber experiments, that solved the discrepancy between the ANL and BNL data. We implement a model previously tested for the cuts $W_{\pi N}<1.4,1.6$ Gev which includes explicitly resonances in the first and second resonance regions, within different approaches for the resonances self energy and $\frac{3}{2}$-vertexes and propagators, a fact not usually analyzed. Our model leans on consistent effective Lagrangians that generate resonant amplitudes together non resonant plus resonant backgrounds. Effects of hadrons finite extension and more energetic resonances corresponding to the emitted pion-nucleon invariant mass in the $1.6<W_{\pi N}<2$ GeV region, are taking into account using appropiate form factors in consistency with previous results on neutral current pion production calculations. Our results reproduce well the reanalysed data without cuts and are compared with another models.
