Description
The MicroBooNE liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) operated in the BNB and NuMI neutrino beamlines as part of the short baseline neutrino (SBN) program at Fermilab from 2015-2021. The experiment collected the world’s largest neutrino-argon scattering data set, which it has used to publish over 60 results covering its primary physics goals: (1) investigate the MiniBooNE low-energy excess and search for beyond-standard-model physics, (2) study neutrino-argon interactions, and (3) develop novel hardware and software for LArTPCs. This talk provides an overview of recent results from the MicroBooNE experiment, including a search for sterile neutrinos under a 3+1 oscillation model, heavy neutral lepton and dark-trident searches, and several inclusive and exclusive neutrino-argon cross section measurements. The talk concludes with an update on the status of the ICARUS and SBND detectors in the SBN program.
