Açıklama
Neutrino-nucleus elastic scattering ($\nu {A}_{el}$) provides a unique laboratory to study the quantum-mechanical (QM) coherency effects in electroweak interactions. The deviations of the cross sections from those of completely coherent systems can be quantitatively characterized through a coherency parameter $\alpha \left({q}^{2}\right)$. The relations between $\alpha $ and the underlying nuclear physics in terms of nuclear form factors are derived. The dependence of cross section on $\alpha \left({q}^{2}\right)$ for the various neutrino sources is presented. The $\alpha \left({q}^{2}\right)$ values are evaluated from the measured data of the COHERENT CsI and Ar experiments. Complete coherency and decoherency conditions are excluded by the CsI data with $p=0.004$ at ${q}^{2}=3.1×{10}^{3}\text{}\text{}{\mathrm{MeV}}^{2}$ and $p=0.016$ at ${q}^{2}=2.3×{10}^{3}\text{}\text{}{\mathrm{MeV}}^{2}$, respectively, verifying that both QM superpositions and nuclear many-body effects contribute to $\nu {A}_{el}$ interactions.
