Description

The MicroBooNE experiment uses an 85-ton liquid argon time projection chamber to detect neutrinos from Fermilab's Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) and off-axis NuMI beam. Its physics program has three main goals. First, it explores beyond-standard-model (BSM) physics by searching for dark sector particles, investigating the MiniBooNE Low Energy Excess, and probing light eV-scale sterile neutrinos. Second, MicroBooNE has produced one of the world’s largest neutrino-argon scattering datasets, with results spanning inclusive, exclusive, and rare interaction channels, including novel neutron detection methods. Third, it drives advances in LArTPC technology, supporting future experiments like DUNE. This talk will review recent MicroBooNE results and innovative analysis techniques shaping modern neutrino physics.
