A search for neutrino oscillations in a muon neutrino beam
… calorimeter followed by a toroidal muon spectrometer and was located 1 km from the target at the AGS. 1.43 $\times$ 10$\sp{19}$ protons on target were collected in the wide band beam with a peak neutrino energy of 1.1 GeV. No evidence for neutrino oscillations was observed. The 90% …

Identifying Muon Neutrino Charged-Current Interactions in the MicroBooNE Detector
The MicroBooNE experiment is a short-baseline neutrino experiment at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) in the US, receiving a highly pure muon neutrino beam from the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) and taking data since October 2015. The main physics goal of MicroBooNE is to clarify the …

Muon Neutrino Disappearance in NOvA with a Deep Convolutional Neural Network Classifier
The NuMI Off-axis Neutrino Appearance Experiment (NOvA) is designed to study neutrino oscillation in the NuMI (Neutrinos at the Main Injector) beam. NOvA observes neutrino oscillation using two detectors separated by a baseline of 810 km; a 14 kt Far Detector in Ash River, MN and a functionally …

Measuring Single Charged Pion Production in Muon Neutrino Interactions on Argon with MicroBooNE
Neutrinos are the most abundant massive particles known, but they interact only rarely with matter. Next-generation experiments such as DUNE aim to measure charge-parity violation in the lepton sector through flavour oscillations of neutrinos propagating over long distances before interacting with …

Measuring theta?? via muon neutrino to electron neutrino oscillations in the MINOS experiment
One of the primary goals in neutrino physics at the present moment is to make a measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameter B13 . This parameter, in addition to being unknown, could potentially allow for the introduction of CP violation into the lepton sector. The MINOS long-baseline neutrino …

Observation of tungsten ---> muon-neutrino decays in proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt. s = 1.8 TeV
The inclusive spectrum of charged particles resulting from the decays of stopped positively charged kaons, produced in proton-antiproton annihilations at rest, has been measured with good momentum resolution $(\delta p/p$ = 1.5%) and high statistics ($\sim$300,000 potential decays). The data were …

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 …
