Title From Detector Development to Systematics: R and D Work and the MINOS Covariance Matrix Analysis

by Dr Mustafa Ozkaynak (University College London)

Wednesday 26 Nov 2025, 12:00 → 13:30 Asia/Shanghai

5#/6th-603 - Meeting Room 603 (Science Building)

Abstract:

This talk will cover two research projects, The first part will describe the detector R and D project in which I developed and operated a continuous cosmic ray detection system. The second part will focus on my contribution to the MINOS covariance matrix analysis. I will outline the implementation of the fit, the role of correlated uncertainties, and the specific behaviour seen in the MINOS only configuration.

Biography:

Dr. Mustafa Ozkaynak is from Cyprus, he recently completed his PhD in experimental neutrino physics at University College London where he also did his Masters. His work includes detector R and D f and contributions to the covariance matrix fit used in the joint NOvA MINOS analysis.
