UNSPECIFIED (2020) Novel Approach for Evaluating Detector Systematics in the MicroBooNE LArTPC. Other. UNSPECIFIED.
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
One of the primary challenges in current and future precision neutrino experiments using liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) is understanding detector effects and quantifying the associated systematic uncertainties. MicroBooNE has pioneered the evaluation of detector-related systematic uncertainties for such experiments. This note presents a novel technique for assessing detector systematics based on low-level comparisons between data and simulation. The method can be used to better understand detector-related uncertainties while remaining agnostic to the details of the detector model in simulation. We believe similar approaches could be applied to future LArTPC experiments, including SBN and DUNE.
