Sterile neutrino searches in MiniBooNE and MicroBooNE
… of the phenomenology of these models. The MiniBooNE experiment and results are then described in detail, particularly the most recent anti-neutrino analysis. This will be followed by a discussion of global fits to world data, including the anomalous data sets. Lastly, future experiments …

Experimental and Phenomenological Investigations of the MiniBooNE Anomaly
… of electron neutrino-like events reported by the MiniBooNE experiment at Fermilab's Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) is one of the most significant and longest standing anomalies in particle physics. This thesis covers a range of experimental and theoretical efforts to elucidate the origin of the …

Neutrino-nucleus neutral current elastic interactions measurement in MiniBooNE
The MiniBooNE experiment at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) was designed to search for electron to muon neutrino oscillations at Delta m^2~1 eV^2 using an intense neutrino flux with an average energy of about 700 MeV. From 2002 to 2009 MiniBooNE has accumulated more than …

Searches for new physics at MiniBooNE : sterile neutrinos and mixing freedom
The MiniBooNE experiment was designed to perform a search for Vu --> Ve oscillations in a region of A[delta]sin 2 20very different from that allowed by standard, three neutrino oscillations, as determined by solar and atmospheric neutrino experiments. This search was motivated by the LSND …

Sensitivity of an expanded inclusive search for MiniBooNE-like excess in MicroBooNE data
… excess of events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment. This is done by a novel analysis in which events are selected from the MicroBooNE simulation data using only information that was available to MiniBooNE. In order to avoid using information unavailable to MiniBooNE, the …

A MEASUREMENT OF THE NEUTRAL CURRENT NEUTRINO-NUCLEON ELASTIC CROSS SECTION AT MINIBOONE
… events in the neutrino oscillation experiment, MiniBooNE, ranking it as the experiment's third largest process. Using ∼10% of MiniBooNE's available neutrino data, a sample of these events were identified and analyzed to determine the differential cross section as a function of the momentum …

Proton Inelastic Cross-section Measurement on Argon with the ProtoDUNE-SP Detector and an Investigation of MicroBooNE Low Energy Excess
… candidate events at low energy observed by the MiniBooNE detector, which may suggest active-sterile neutrino oscillations. This work discusses comparisons performed between two MicroBooNE analysis approaches and forms a part of the results of the MicroBooNE flagship analysis, which is …

Precision Search for Muon Antineutrino Disappearance Oscillations Using a Dual Baseline Technique
… antineutrino disappearance with the SciBooNE and MiniBooNE experiments at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois is presented. Short baseline muon antineutrino disappearance measurements help constrain sterile neutrino models. The two detectors observe muon antineutrinos from …

Neutrino interaction vertex reconstruction and particle identification in the MicroBooNE detector
… neutrino appearance anomalies observed at MiniBooNE and LSND. The experiment therefore requires high-quality neutrino interaction vertex reconstruction and PID, which together strongly influence event reconstruction quality and energy/momentum estimation. Improvements to the vertex …

Using Cutting Edge Software and Techniques to Model and Measure Experimental Neutrino Data
… a new and comprehensive analysis of the MiniBooNE low energy excess of electronlike events is presented. A new model called the “dipole model” is used, which is an extension of the 3+1 model. Alongside the three neutrinos in the Standard Model and a fourth, sterile neutrino participating …

Identifying Muon Neutrino Charged-Current Interactions in the MicroBooNE Detector
… excess of electron-like events observed by the MiniBooNE Cherenkov detector, which due to its detector technology is unable to resolve whether the observed excess shower-like events are due to electrons or photons. Instead, MicrooBooNE employs cutting-edge liquid argon time projection chamber …

Limit on the muon neutrino magnetic moment and a measurement of the CCPIP to CCQE cross section ratio
A search for the muon neutrino magnetic moment was conducted using the Mini- BooNE low energy neutrino data. The analysis was performed by analyzing the elastic scattering interactions of muon neutrinos on electrons. The analysis looked for an excess of elastic scattering events above the Standard …
