Extended Data Fig. 2: Comparison of the measured exclusions to the expected sensitivities.
From: Search for light sterile neutrinos with two neutrino beams at MicroBooNE
The red solid lines show the measured exclusion lines at the 95% CLs level in the plane of \(\Delta {m}_{41}^{2}\) and (a) \({\sin }^{2}(2{\theta }_{{\rm{\mu }}{\rm{e}}})\) or (b) \({\sin }^{2}(2{\theta }_{{\rm{e}}{\rm{e}}})\). The blue dashed lines show the median expected sensitivities. The green and yellow bands show the 1σ and 2σ expected fluctuations around the median sensitivities at each \(\Delta {m}_{41}^{2}\) value. The red dashed lines show the previous MicroBooNE BNB-only result34 and the blue solid lines shows the measured NuMI-only exclusions at 95% CLs.
