Particle Physics Seminar

"Results of the Neutrino Oscillation Search at MiniBooNE"

Presented by Eric D. Zimmerman, University of Colorado

Thursday, April 26, 2007, 3:00 pm — Small Seminar Room, Bldg. 510

The MiniBooNE neutrino oscillation experiment was motivated by evidence reported by LSND for oscillations at the delta m**2 squared scale around 1 eV**2. Oscillations at this scale cannot be reconciled with the results of atmospheric, solar, reactor, and other accelerator experiments without introducing at least a fourth neutrino mass or other novel physics. MiniBooNE tests LSND using a substantially
different experimental technique, including a higher energy beam and detection of oscillations through a different neutrino interaction channel. Initial results for the muon neutrino to electron neutrino appearance search will be presented.
