Search for Accelerator-Produced Sub-GeV Dark Matter with the NOvA Near Detector
S. Abubakar, M. Acero, B. Acharya +184
The NuMI facility at Fermilab produces a high-intensity beam of muon neutrinos and antineutrinos, designed to study neutrino oscillations. This beam may also be a source of dark ma…
Joint neutrino oscillation analysis from the T2K and NOvA experiments
NOvA, T2K Collaborations, : +597
The landmark discovery that neutrinos have mass and can change type (or "flavor") as they propagate -- a process called neutrino oscillation -- has opened up a rich array of theore…
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…
Measurement of the double-differential cross section of muon-neutrino charged-current interactions with low hadronic energy in the NOvA Near Detector
M. A. Acero, B. Acharya, P. Adamson +208
The NOvA collaboration reports cross-section measurements for charged-current interactions with low hadronic energy (maximum kinetic energy of 250 MeV for protons and 175 M…
