Description

Results are presented on all three neutrino induced charged current reactions with a single pion in the final state. These reactions are observed in the bubble chamber Gargamelle filled with a light propane-freon mixture and exposed to the wide band ν beam at the CERN PS. Reinteractions of the final state in the target nuclei are accounted for, so that relative cross sections on free nucleons can be determined and the isospin properties of the charged current can be directly deduced. The results are also given for pion-nucleon invariant mass lower than 1,4 GeV/c2
