New Thoughts on MiniBooNE Anomaly - Understanding Short-Baseline Neutrino Results

Join a one-hour High Energy Physics seminar where Kevin Kelly from Texas A&M explores the long-standing MiniBooNE anomaly and recent developments in understanding its significance. Delve into the decade-old puzzle that has prompted investigations into low-scale new physics scenarios, ranging from eV-scale sterile neutrinos to more exotic explanations. Examine current perspectives on short-baseline anomalies, including recent findings from the MicroBooNE experiment, and discover how new background studies may substantially reduce the significance of the anomalous results previously observed in MiniBooNE data.
