The Inclusive Production of the Meson Resonances in Neutrino Charged Current (cc) Interactions

The inclusive production of the meson resonances ρ0(770), f0(980), f2(1270), K*+(892) in neutrino-nucleon interactions has been studied with the NOMAD detector. For the first time the f0(980) meson is observed in neutrino interactions. The presence of f2(1270) in the neutrino interactions is reliably established. The average multiplicity of these three resonances is measured as a function of several kinematic variables. The experimental results are compared to the multiplicities obtained from a simulation based on the Lund model. Matrix element of spin density matrix for K*+(892) meson have been measured.
