Abstract
The MicroBooNE detector is the world's longest-running liquid argon time
projection chamber (LArTPC), currently installed in the Booster Neutrino
Beam at Fermilab. One of the primary physics goals of MicroBooNE is to
perform detailed studies of neutrino-argon scattering cross sections,
which are critical for the success of future neutrino oscillation
experiments. At neutrino energies relevant for the Short-Baseline
Neutrino Program, the most plentiful event topology involves mesonless
final states containing one or more protons. A low reconstruction
threshold enabled by LArTPC technology has allowed MicroBooNE to pursue
various analyses studying neutrino-induced proton production at
accelerator energies. This talk presents several recent results from
that effort, including a neutral-current elastic differential cross
section as a function of Q$^2$, as well as charged-current measurements
examining exclusive final states containing protons.
