Our measurements of mesonless CC νμ interactions with final-state protons have been published in Physical Review D. This is the dominant topology for the Short-Baseline Program, hence the importance of these results for informing interaction models. journals.aps.org/prd/abstrac…

#ICYMI: Scientists on the MicroBooNE experiment further ruled out the possibility of one sterile neutrino as an explanation for results from previous experiments. Congratulations to the @Microboone collaboration on this exciting result! news.fnal.gov/2025/12/microb…

New MicroBooNE result in Nature! We exclude, at 95% CL, the 3 1 explanation of the LSND and MiniBooNE anomalies, as well as regions allowed by the gallium and Neutrino-4 anomalies. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Ten years ago, the first neutrinos interacted in the liquid argon of the MicroBooNE particle detector at Fermilab, marking a turning point for the lab’s neutrino research program.

Now published in Physics Letters B! Our triple differential measurement of muon neutrino cross sections on argon. It’s really important to characterise interactions across a range of variables to get the full picture of the complex physics. doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2…

Next week, it’s MicroBooNE’s 10th birthday! A decade of scientific discovery, over 80 papers and 70 students graduated, and we’re still as strong as ever. Look out for our celebrations on Friday 17th October!

We’ve released a new paper! Measurements of charged-current muon-neutrino interactions on argon with a final-state charged pion. Modelling of pion production will be particularly important for upcoming experiments like @DUNEScience.  arxiv.org/abs/2509.03628
