Abstract EN
Nonstandard neutrino-nucleon interaction is formulated and explored within the energy range of quasi-elastic scattering.
In particular, the study focuses on the neutral-current elastic (anti)neutrino scattering off nucleons described by the exotic reactions να(ν¯α)+n→νβ(ν¯β)+n and να(ν¯α)+p→νβ(ν¯β)+p, which provide corrections to the dominant Standard Model processes.
In this context, it is shown that the required exotic nucleon form factors may have a significant impact on the relevant cross sections.
Besides cross sections, the event rate is expected to be rather sensitive to the magnitude of the lepton-flavour violating parameters resulting in an excess of events.
The overlap of nonstandard interactions and strange quark contributions, in the region of few GeV neutrino energies, is also examined.
The formalism is applied for the case of the relevant neutrino-nucleon scattering experiments (LSND, MiniBooNE, etc.) and motivates the notion that such facilities have high potential to probe NSI.
