Explaining the MiniBooNE Excess Through a Mixed Model of Oscillation and Decay

This poster presents a model of the electron-like excess observed by the MiniBooNE experiment comprising of oscillations involving two new mass states: $\nu_4$, at $\mathcal{O}(1)$ eV, that participates in oscillations, and $\mathcal{N}$, at $\mathcal{O}(100)$ MeV, that decays to $\nu+\gamma$ via a dipole interaction. Short-baseline oscillation data sets, omitting MiniBooNE appearance …
