abstract

We have applied a microscopic model for single photon emission in neutral current interactions on nucleons and nuclei to determine the number and distributions of such events at the Super-Kamiokande detector, for the flux and beam exposure of the T2K experiment in neutrino mode. These reactions represent an irreducible background in electron-(anti)neutrino appearance measurements aimed at a precise measurement of mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ and the $CP$ violating phase. We have obtained a total number of photon events that is twice larger than the one from the NEUT event generator (version 5.1.4.2) used in the analysis of T2K data. Detailed comparisons of energy and angular distributions for the $\nu_\mu$ and $\bar\nu_\mu$ fluxes have also been performed.

  1. Radiative corrections in neutral-current (anti)neutrino elastic scattering at $\text{GeV}$ energies I: Nucleon targets

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Radiative corrections to neutral-current (anti)neutrino-nucleon elastic scattering are computed within low-energy EFT and reach a few percent, comparable to the strange-quark effects they must be disentangled from.

  2. Monophotons at Neutrino Experiments from Neutrino Polarizability

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    NOMAD and MiniBooNE data currently constrain the neutrino-polarizability coupling product most strongly, while SBND and DUNE are projected to improve these bounds by up to three orders of magnitude.
