VIRTUAL INPA SEMINAR – Adrien Hourlier (MIT)
October 2, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Speaker: Adrien Hourlier (MIT)
Title: MiniBooNE Oscillation Results with Complete Dataset
Abstract:
The MiniBooNE experiment, located on the Booster Neutrino Beamline at Fermilab, reports a total excess of 638.0+/-132.8 electron-like events (4.8σ) from a data sample corresponding to 18.75×10^20 protons-on-target in neutrino mode, which is a 46% increase in the data sample with respect to previously published results, and 11.27 × 10^20 protons-on-target in antineutrino mode. The additional statistics allow several studies to address questions on the source of the excess. I will discuss how we can use distributions such as beam timing and the radial distribution to disfavor some of the possible explanation for the source of the excess such as an excess of entering or exiting photons.
