Results of the neutrino oscillation search at MiniBooNE

ABSTRACT:  
The MiniBooNE neutrino oscillation experiment was motivated by evidence 
reported by LSND for oscillations at the delta m squared scale 
around 1 eV**2.  Oscillations at this scale cannot be reconciled with the 
results of atmospheric, solar, reactor, and other accelerator experiments 
without introducing at least a fourth neutrino mass or other novel physics. 
MiniBooNE tests LSND using a substantially different experimental technique, 
including a higher energy beam and detection of oscillations through a 
different neutrino interaction channel.  Initial results for the muon 
neutrino to electron neutrino appearance search will be presented.
