Resonance production by neutrinos: The second resonance region

The article contains new results for spin-3/2 and -1/2 resonances. It specializes to the second resonance region, which includes the $P_{11}(1440)$, $D_{13}(1520)$ and $S_{11}(1535)$ resonances. New data on electroproduction enable us to determine the vector form factors accurately. Estimates for the axial couplings are obtained from decay rates of the resonances with the help of the partially conserved axial current (PCAC) hypothesis. We present cross sections to be compared with the running and future experiments. The article is self--contained and allows the reader to write simple programs for reproducing the cross sections and for obtaining additional differential cross sections.
