Delta Radiative Decays in the MiniBooNE Experiment
ORAL
Abstract
The rare radiative decay of the delta baryon is of particular interest to the MiniBooNE experiment because of its similarity to the $\nu_\mu \rightarrow \nu_e$ oscillation signal. The method of boosting decision trees to form a powerful identifying committee from several weak identifiers is discussed and applied to identifying delta radiative decays. Application of this analysis to the MiniBooNE oscillation data is discussed.
