MiniBooNE Status : Cross Section Results

ORAL

Abstract

MiniBooNE, located at Fermi National Laboratory, is an experiment designed to confirm or refute the LSND neutrino oscillation result. MiniBooNE will look for oscillations of $\nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \nu_{e}$ in a closed-box appearance analysis. The event sample at MiniBooNE is dominated by the four following processes : CCQE (charge current quasi-elastic, 40\%), CC$\pi^+$ (charge current $\pi^+$, 25\%), NCE (neutral current elastic, 16\%), NC$\pi^0$ (neutral current $\pi^0$, 7\%). This talk will focus on the current status of cross section measurements for these four processes.
