Neutrino-Deuteron Reactions at Solar Neutrino Energies in Pionless Effective Field Theory with Dibaryon Fields
2019
We study breakup of the deuteron induced by neutrinos in the neutral $\nu d\to \nu np$, $\bar{\nu} d\to \bar{\nu} np$ and the charged $\bar{\nu} d\to e^+ n n$, $\nu d\to e^- pp$ processes. Pionless effective field theory with dibaryon fields is used to calculate the total cross sections for the neutrino energies $E_\nu$ from threshold to 20 MeV. Amplitudes are expanded up to next-to-leading order, and the partial wave is truncated at P-waves. Coulomb interaction between two protons is included non-perturbatively in the reaction amplitudes, and an analytic expression of the amplitudes is obtained. Contribution of the next-to-leading order to the total cross section is in the range of 5.2$\sim$9.9\% in magnitude, and that of P-wave is 2.4$\sim$2.8\% at $E_\nu = 20$ MeV. Uncertainty arising from an axial isovector low-energy constant is estimated at the order of 1\%.
