Neutrino Physics at The Short Baseline Near Detector at Fermilab

The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) will be a 112 ton 
liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) devoted to 
researching neutrino oscillations. Located 110 m downstream 
of the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) target, SBND is the near 
detector of the three-detector Short Baseline Neutrino (SBN) 
program at Fermilab. The SBN program will probe neutrino 
oscillations at the ~1 eV2 scale. SBND will have a rich cross-
section measurement program and is also a testbed for R&D of 
new technology. Additionally, the detector's fine spatial 
resolution and relative high rate of interactions, make it a 
prime candidate to look for BSM physics.

In this talk, I'll give an overview of the LSND and MiniBooNE 
anomalies, the current landscape of oscillations at this scale, 
and briefly discuss the shrinking potential for light sterile 
neutrinos to explain observations. I'll present a novel dark 
sector model that tackles MiniBooNE's low energy excess, and 
simulations of this exotic interaction in SBND. I'll conclude
with an overview of the future of LArTPC neutrino experiments 
and DUNE.
