IceCube bounds on sterile neutrinos above 10 eV
Abstract We study the capabilities of IceCube to search for sterile neutrinos with masses above 10 eV by analyzing its $$\nu _\mu $$ νμ disappearance atmospheric neutrino sample. We find that IceCube is not only sensitive to the mixing of sterile neutrinos to muon neutrinos, but also to the more elu...
