English abstract | The rate for inclusive charm production in neutral current neutrino-nucleus interactions is calculated. The interaction of high energy neutrinos on hadron targets is an outstanding probe to test Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and shed light in the understanding of the parton properties of hadron structure. We have considered the QCD color dipole picture for such an interaction and have in addition used parton saturation models. In particular, the dipole cross section is taken from recent phenomenology on deep inelastic scattering (DIS) at DESY-HERA. The theoretical predictions are compared to available theoretical predictions and experimental results from NuTeV detector at Fermilab. Moreover, we compute the relative rate of the associated cross section in deep inelastic neutrino-nucleus interactions, s(c ¯ cn)=sNC tot , from CHORUS Collaboration. As a byproduct, a QCD analysis of the F2, FL and F3 structure functions for the neutral current case also is presented |
