Can standard model and experimental uncertainties resolve the MiniBooNE anomaly?
Can standard model and experimental uncertainties resolve the MiniBooNE anomaly?
We critically examine a number of theoretical uncertainties affecting the MiniBooNE short-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment in an attempt to better understand the observed excess of electronlike events. We reexamine the impact of fake charged current quasielastic events, the background due to neutral current ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ production, and the single-photon background. For …
