Invited

DUNE (Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment) is a proposed long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment located in the United States. The main physics objectives of DUNE are to characterize neutrino oscillations, search for nucleon decay, and observe supernova neutrino bursts. The DUNE far detector will be located 4850' underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South...

25. Impact of Cross-Sectional Uncertainties on DUNE Sensitivity due to Nuclear Effects

Invited

In neutrino oscillation experiments precise measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters is of prime importance as well as a challenge. To improve the statistics, presently running and proposed experiments are using heavy nuclear targets. These targets introduce nuclear effects and the quantification of these effects on neutrino oscillation parameters will be decisive in the prediction of...

30. Simple Charge and Flash Matching to better constrain cosmic background in SBN’s near and far detectors.

Invited

The SBN program is made up of three liquid argon time projection chambers detectors on the Booster Neutrino Beam line at Fermilab. It will probe neutrino oscillations at the ∼1𝑒𝑉2 scale, addressing tensions pointing to the possible existence of sterile neutrinos. SBND and ICARUS are the near and far detectors at 110 m and 600 m from the source, with a mass of 112 tons and 476 tons;...

6. Event Reconstruction Improvements with Machine Learning in SBND

Invited

The Short Baseline Near Detector (SBND) is the closest of three surface level Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LAr TPCs) in the Short Baseline Neutrino (SBN) programme at Fermilab. Situated 110m into the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB), SBND has a rich cross-section programme alongside its role in the SBN sterile neutrino search. SBND uses Pandora multi-algorithm pattern recognition to...

17. Results from the ICARUS T600 Detector concerning the “Online Method” of Purity Monitoring

Olivia Bitter (Fermilab/UIC)

The ICARUS T600 liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) will soon begin taking data on Fermilab’s Booster Neutrino Beamline (BNB). In preparation for its operations, we present an analysis of “online” data quality monitoring of the liquid argon purity. We evaluated the performance of the algorithm on simulated cosmic ray muon interactions in the ICARUS detector. Comparing the measured...
