Title: MiniBooNE, $MINOS +$ and IceCube data imply a baroque neutrino sector

Abstract

The 4.8σ anomaly in MiniBooNE data cannot be reconciled with MINOS+ and IceCube data within the vanilla framework of neutrino oscillations involving an eV-mass sterile neutrino. We show that an apparently consistent picture can be drawn if charged-current and neutral-current nonstandard neutrino interactions are at work in the 3+1 neutrino scheme. It appears that either the neutrino sector is more elaborate than usually envisioned, or one or more datasets needs revision.

Improved Constraints on Sterile Neutrino Mixing from Disappearance Searches in the MINOS, $MINOS +$ , Daya Bay, and Bugey-3 Experiments

Journal Article Adamson, P. ; An, F. P. ; Anghel, I. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Searches for electron antineutrino, muon neutrino, and muon antineutrino disappearance driven by sterile neutrino mixing have been carried out by the Daya Bay and MINOS+ collaborations. This Letter presents the combined results of these searches, along with exclusion results from the Bugey-3 reactor experiment, framed in a minimally extended four-neutrino scenario.

Activating the fourth neutrino of the $3 + 1$ scheme

Journal Article Denton, Peter B. ; Farzan, Yasaman ; Shoemaker, Ian M. - Physical Review. D.

Nonstandard interactions (NSI) of neutrinos with matter has received renewed interest in recent years. In particular, it has been shown that NSI can reconcile the 3 + 1 solution with IceCube atmospheric data with E_v > 500 GeV, provided that the effective coupling of NSI is large, e.g., -6G_F. The main goal of the present paper is to show that contrary to intuition, it is possible to build viable models with large NSI by invoking a new U(l) gauge symmetry with gauge boson of mass -10 eV. We refer to these new constructions as 3 + 1 + U(l) models.more »« less

Explaining $(g - 2)_{μ, e}$ , the KOTO anomaly, and the MiniBooNE excess in an extended Higgs model with sterile neutrinos

Journal Article Dutta, Bhaskar ; Ghosh, Sumit ; Li, Tianjun - Physical Review. D.

We consider a simple extension of the Standard Model (SM) by a complex scalar doublet and a singlet along with three sterile neutrinos. The sterile neutrinos mix with the SM neutrinos to produce three light neutrino states consistent with the oscillation data and three heavy sterile states. The lightest sterile neutrino has lifetime longer than the age of the Universe and can provide correct dark matter relic abundance. Utilizing tree-level flavor changing interactions of a light scalar with mass ~O(100) MeV along with sterile neutrinos, we can explain the anomalous magnetic moments of both muon and electron, KOTO anomalous eventsmore »« less

MiniBooNE and MicroBooNE Combined Fit to a $3 + 1$ Sterile Neutrino Scenario

Journal Article Aguilar-Arevalo, A. A. ; Brown, B. C. ; Conrad, J. M. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

This Letter presents the results from the MiniBooNE experiment within a full “3+1” scenario where one sterile neutrino is introduced to the three-active-neutrino picture. In addition to electron-neutrino appearance at short baselines, this scenario also allows for disappearance of the muon-neutrino and electron-neutrino fluxes in the Booster Neutrino Beam, which is shared by the MicroBooNE experiment. We present the 3+1 fit to the MiniBooNE electron-(anti)neutrino and muon-(anti)neutrino data alone and in combination with MicroBooNE electron-neutrino data. The best-fit parameters of the combined fit with the exclusive charged-current quasielastic analysis (inclusive analysis) are Δm²=0.209 eV² (0.033 eV²) , |U_e4|² = 0.016(0.500),more »« less
