1. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 1 Neutrino Physics and Beyond

2. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 2 While in Washington on Loan to DOE Program manager: 23 University grants Daya Bay Experiment US – T2K Experiment CDMS EXO-200 etc. Back in Cincinnati – September 1, 2008

3. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 3 MiniBooNE Experiment Standard Reaction: Oscillation Reaction:

4. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 4 MiniBooNE in the Interim Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 231801 (2007)

5. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 5 MiniBooNE Mystery Excess Low Energy Events New Physics: Conventional but Unsimulated? Non-Standard Model? Source of LSND result?

6. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 6 Charge Current Quasi-Elastic Cross Section Actually off Carbon Learn about: Neutrino Scattering Nuclear Structure Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 032301 (2008)

7. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 7 Neutral Current Pi-Zero Production (Jen’s Thesis) Measurement of the Coherent vs. Resonant Production Cross Sections In the final draft stages

8. Physics Department Retreat February 9, 2008 8 Future Plans Definitely: Return to MiniBooNE for antineutrino running and more physics analysis Additional Possibilities: Can’t say for sure because of my present job and because I have to find out where the interest in the department is. Unstated possibilities: Reactor Neutrino Experiment (Double Chooz in France or Daya Bay in China) T2K Experiment in Japan LHC (Atlas or CMS) at CERN
