Oral presentation in parallel session
In the last decades, neutrino physics has experienced great progress. Nowadays, there is no doubt that neutrinos are massive and mix, giving rise to the flavor oscillation mechanism, rather well characterized by current data. However, there are still some uncertainties in the oscillation mechanism that will be addressed by the next generation of neutrino experiments, such as DUNE. Likewise,...

The results from a search for heavy neutrinos with masses in the range 140 < $M_N$ < 493 MeV/c$^2$, using the off-axis near detector ND280 of the T2K experiment, will be reported. These particles can be produced from kaon decays in the standard neutrino beam and then subsequently decay in ND280. The decay modes under consideration are $N \to \ell^{\pm} \pi^{\mp}$ and $N \to \ell^{+} \ell^{-}...

Oral presentation in parallel session
The SHiP Collaboration has proposed a general-purpose experimental facility operating in beam dump mode at the CERN SPS accelerator with the aim of searching for light, long-lived exotic particles of Hidden Sector models. The SHiP experiment incorporates a muon shield based on magnetic sweeping and two complementary apparatuses. The detector immediately downstream of the muon shield is...

Oral presentation in parallel session
The MicroBooNE detector is a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC), designed for the short-baseline neutrino physics program in the Booster neutrino beamline at Fermilab. Because of the exceptional calorimetric and tracking capabilities, LArTPCs are employed in many current and future neutrino experiments. MicroBooNE takes a crucial role as an operating physics experiment to...
