Direct comparison of sterile neutrino constraints from cosmological data, $$\nu _{e}$$ νe disappearance data and $$\nu _{\mu } \rightarrow \nu _{e} $$ νμ→νe appearance data in a $$3+1$$ 3+1 model

Abstract We present a quantitative, direct comparison of constraints on sterile neutrinos derived from neutrino oscillation experiments and from Planck data, interpreted assuming standard cosmological evolution. We extend a $$1+1$$ 1+1 model, which is used to compare exclusion contours at the 95% Cl...
