Abstract

Within the Continuum Random Phase Approximation we have calculated neutral current cross sections for various neutrino-induced particle reactions on selected nuclei. These cross sections are important for the neutrino-nucleosynthesis in explosive supernova burning. As a byproduct we find that neutrinos and antineutrinos excite parts of the giant dipole resonance differently, with scattering on 16O showing the most noticeable deviations.
