Description
MicroBooNE is an 85-tonne liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) at Fermilab, positioned on the Booster Neutrino Beam and off-axis to the NuMI beam. From 2015 to 2020, it collected extensive neutrino and cosmic ray data, enabling high-statistics studies of neutrino properties in the GeV range. With excellent calorimetric and spatial resolution, MicroBooNE serves both precision neutrino physics and searches for Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) phenomena.
The experiment has developed advanced reconstruction techniques to study a broad range of interaction channels, including rare processes critical for next-generation experiments like DUNE. MicroBooNE also leads investigations into the MiniBooNE low energy excess (LEE), with a comprehensive suite of searches probing possible origins of the anomaly.
This talk will highlight MicroBooNE’s latest results.
