Description

MicroBooNE utilizes a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) located on-axis in the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) to search for the excess of low energy electromagnetic-like events (eLEE) seen by the MiniBooNE experiment. This talk will present MicroBooNE’s progress in the low-energy excess search, including the status of our deep-learning-based approach for identifying low-energy electron neutrino interactions within the MicroBooNE detector.
