/ Abstract
A method is presented using helicity cross sections for calculating neutrino-nucleon interactions. The formalism is applied in the calculation of the pion spectra produced by nu_mu and nu_tau beams. The masses of the charged leptons are kept throughout the calculations. Cross sections are presented in numerous figures where the contributions of the significant form factors are also shown. The article describes the steps of the calculation and gives details so that it can be reproduced and adapted to the kinematic conditions of the experiments.
