A Low Energy Track Reconstruction Algorithm to be Applied to the MiniBooNE Low Energy Excess Search in MicroBooNE*

The MicroBooNE experiment is an 85 ton Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) located on the Booster Neutrino Beam at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory.  A primary goal of the experiment is to investigate the low energy excess of electron neutrino like events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment.  I will present a brief overview of MicroBooNE and its searches for the low energy excess.  I will focus on the track reconstruction algorithm, to which I contributed by calibrating the response to protons and minimum ionizing particles.
