High energy v -nucleus cross sections have been compared for Pb, Fe, Al and C as target nuclei, exposed to the CERN v -beam. The events with θ vμ < 29 0 and p μ ⪆ 1 GeV /c have rates in the ratio of the mass number of the nuclei. Also a restricted sample with q 2 ⪅ 0.1 (GeV/ c ) 2 and θ vμ < 5 0 does not reveal a theoretically predicted deviation from A -proportionality, although due to the limited statistical accuracy in this restricted sample an “ A 2 3 - contribution ” of several tenths cannot be excluded either.
