MiniBooNE Neutrino Oscillation Search Results and Predicted Background Events

Abstract

In this short review, we discuss the 2020 MiniBooNE electron neutrino appearance oscillation results with special attention on background predictions relevant to the MiniBooNE oscillation results and other (anti)electron neutrino appearance search experiments.
