DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dante Totani (University of California\, Santa Barbr
 a)\nThe MicroBooNE detector\, located in the Booster Neutrino Beamline (BN
 B) at Fermilab\, has been operating since 2015 as part of the Short Baseli
 ne Neutrino (SBN) program. MicroBooNE's Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamb
 er is accompanied by a Photon Detection System (consisting of 32 PMTs) use
 d to measure the argon scintillation light and determine the timing of the
  neutrino interactions. This work will demonstrate the analysis techniques
  developed to improve the timing resolution of the light signals to $\\mat
 hcal{O}$(ns). The result obtained allows MicroBooNE to access the 2ns neut
 rino pulse structure of the BNB for the first time\, which enables signifi
 cant enhancement of cosmic background rejection for all neutrino analyses.
  Furthermore\, the ns timing resolution opens the door for searching new 
 long-lived-particles (i.e. Heavy Neutral Lepton\, Higgs Portal Scalars) a
 s we develop light-based trigger systems for future large LArTPC experimen
 ts\, namely SBN and DUNE.\n\nhttps://indico.physics.ucsd.edu/event/1/contr
