A Study of Systematic Errors In a Search for Neutron Oscillation (At Super-K)

ORAL

Abstract

The study holds responsibilities in comparing the uncertainties in the detection efficiency, exposure, and background rates. The major sources of errors are in the propagation of particles through the residual nucleus. I will discuss my duties of working within the Monte Carlo program (a Simulator), sharing data in a spreadsheet format to show conflicting error results.
