Charged-Current Neutrino-Induced Single-Pion Production in the Superscaling Approach and Relativistic Distorted-Wave Impulse Approximation

In this work, we present a detailed comparison of the SuSAv2 (SuperScaling Approach version 2) and RDWIA (Relativistic Distorted-Wave Impulse Approximation) models with measurements of charged-current neutrino-induced single-pion production from different experiments (T2K, MINERvA and MiniBooNE), studying the differences between the two theoretical descriptions. The neutrino energy range in these experiments spans from hundreds of MeV to roughly 20 GeV, and the nuclear targets are mainly composed of $^{12}$C. The SuSAv2 model uses the single-nucleon inelastic structure functions from the ANL-Osaka DCC model, which allows for a separation of pion production channels, distinguishing between the $\pi^+$, $\pi^-$ and $\pi^0$ final states. In the RDWIA approach, the Hybrid model developed by the Ghent group is used for the description of the boson-pion-nucleon vertex.
