Abstract

The results from an investigation of the incoherent single pion electroweak production on the deuteron in the $\Delta$(1232) region are reported. The importance of including the nucleon-nucleon final state interactions in extracting the neutrino-nucleon cross sections from the data obtained from the experiments on the deuteron target is demonstrated.
