Cluster Infall for Mass Calibration in the Stage-IV Era
Connor Sweeney, Eduardo Rozo
The outskirts of galaxy clusters present a promising avenue for constraining cluster masses in a way that is robust to the impact of baryonic physics. We assess the accuracy to whi…
First Light from Beam Neutrinos on an LAPPD in ANNIE
B. W. Adams, S. Abubakar, D. Ajana +71
The Accelerator Neutrino Neutron Interaction Experiment (ANNIE) is both a physics experiment and a technology testbed for next-generation light-based neutrino detection. In this pa…
Reconstruction of neutrino events in the Accelerator Neutrino Neutron Interaction Experiment: Part I
S. Abubakar, M. Acsencio-Sosa, D. Ajana +65
The Accelerator Neutrino Neutron Interaction Experiment (ANNIE) was designed to reconstruct neutrino events from the Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) with the parallel goals of…
Measurement of d2sigma/d|q|dEavail in charged current neutrino-nucleus interactions at <Ev> = 1.86 GeV using the NOvA Near Detector
M. A. Acero, B. Acharya, P. Adamson +205
Double- and single-differential cross sections for inclusive charged-current neutrino-nucleus scattering are reported for the kinematic domain 0 to 2 GeV/c in three-momentum transf…
Dual-Baseline Search for Active-to-Sterile Neutrino Oscillations in NOvA
The NOvA Collaboration
We report a search for neutrino oscillations to sterile neutrinos under a model with three active and one sterile neutrinos (3+1 model). This analysis uses the NOvA detectors expos…
Monte Carlo method for constructing confidence intervals with unconstrained and constrained nuisance parameters in the NOvA experiment
M. A. Acero, B. Acharya, P. Adamson +218
Measuring observables to constrain models using maximum-likelihood estimation is fundamental to many physics experiments. Wilks' theorem provides a simple way to construct confiden…
