NEUTRINO INDUCED TRANSITIONS BETWEEN THE GROUND-STATES OF THE A=12 TRIAD

Neutrino induced reactions on C-12, an ingredient of liquid scintillat ors, have been studied in several experiments. We show that for curren tly available nentrino energies, E(nu) less than or equal to 300 MeV, calculated exclusive cross sections C-12(g.s.)(nu,l)N-12(g.s.) for bot h muon and electron neutrinos are essentially model independent, provi ded the calculations simultaneously describe the rates of several othe r reactions involving the same states or their Isobar analogs. The cal culations agree well with the measured cross sections, which can be th erefore used to check the normalization of the incident neutrino spect rum and the efficiency of the detector.
