A study of backward going $p$ and $π^{-}$ in $ν_μCC$ interactions with the NOMAD detector

Authors

Description

Backward proton and $π^-$ production has been studied in $ν_μCC$ interactions with carbon nuclei. Detailed analyses of the momentum distributions, of the production rates, and of the general features of events with a backward going particle, have been carried out in order to understand the mechanism producing these particles. The backward proton data have been compared with the predictions of the reinteraction and the short range correlation models.
