(a) Neutrino energy distribution at  MeV and (upper panel) and  GeV and (lower panel), reconstructed from (45) using pairs of ( ) values sampled from the probability distributions associated with the oxygen spectral function of [49]. (SF) and the RFGM, with Fermi momentum  MeV and removal energy MeV (FG). The arrows point to the values of obtained from (46). (b) Differential cross-section of the process , at  MeV and (upper panel) and  GeV and (lower panel), as a function of the incoming neutrino energy. The solid line shows the results of the full calculation, carried out within the approach of [15, 52], whereas the dashed line has been obtained neglecting the effects of FSI. The dot-dash line corresponds to the RFG model with Fermi momentum  MeV and removal energy MeV. The arrow points to the value of obtained from (46).
