Search for a Low Energy Excess in MicroBooNE
Abstract
MicroBooNE (the Micro Booster Neutrino Experiment) is a liquid argon time-projection chamber (TPC) experiment designed for short-baseline neutrino physics, currently running at Fermilab. It aims to address the anomalous excess of low-energy events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment. Recent progress towards the search for the low-energy events have brought to develop fully automated event selection algorithm to identify charged-current electron neutrino event candidates with no pions and at least one proton in the final state (e~CC 0π Np) using the Pandora multi-algorithm pattern recognition. Several cross checks and sidebands have been studied so far to validate the analysis.
