“…Using a 10-year exposure of the Antares detector, no significant deviation of the track-like event sample (primarily ν µ interactions was observed indicating no evidence for this scenario. Accordingly, limits on the sterile mixing parameters |U µ4 | < 0.007 and |U τ4 | < 0.40 were obtained [11], both of which are consistent with results from Super-Kamiokande and IceCube.…”

While there is as-yet no indication of proton decay, lifetime limits have been extended to new extremes prompting the construction of megaton-scale detectors. At the same time, efforts to understand the main background to such searches, atmospheric neutrinos, have yielded a variety of information on their masses, mixings, and even interactions with matter. This presentation discussed recent experimental results as well as expectations for the next generation of detectors in the study of atmospheric neutrinos and the search for proton decay.

“…Constraints from the water-Cherenkov neutrino detector ANTARES located in the Mediteranean sea are in preparation [160] and expected to yield comparable constraints. In order to significantly improve on these results though, improved energy resolution and statistics in the few-GeV energy region is required.…”

A number of anomalous results in short-baseline oscillation may hint at the existence of one or more light sterile neutrino states in the eV mass range and have triggered a wave of new experimental efforts to search for a definite signature of oscillations between active and sterile neutrino states. The present paper aims to provide a comprehensive review on the status of light sterile neutrino searches in mid-2019: we discuss not only the basic experimental approaches and sensitivities of reactor, source, atmospheric, and accelerator neutrino oscillation experiments but also the complementary bounds arising from direct neutrino mass experiments and cosmological observations. Moreover, we review current results from global oscillation analyses that include the constraints set by running reactor and atmospheric neutrino experiments. They permit to set tighter bounds on the active-sterile oscillation parameters but as yet are not able to provide a definite conclusion on the existence of eV-scale sterile neutrinos.

“…Testing the 3 þ 1 model as an explanation of shortbaseline anomalies and constraining its free parameters requires measurements in multiple oscillation channels, FIG including ν μ → ν μ [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32], ν e → ν e [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41], and ν μ → ν e [5,6,[42][43][44]. Fits to global data [9,11,45] find a strong preference for models with sterile neutrinos over the standard three-neutrino paradigm.…”

The results of a 3 þ 1 sterile neutrino search using eight years of data from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory are presented. A total of 305 735 muon neutrino events are analyzed in reconstructed energyzenith space to test for signatures of a matter-enhanced oscillation that would occur given a sterile neutrino state with a mass-squared differences between 0.01 and 100 eV 2. The best-fit point is found to be at sin 2 ð2θ 24 Þ ¼ 0.10 and Δm 2 41 ¼ 4.5 eV 2 , which is consistent with the no sterile neutrino hypothesis with a p value of 8.0%.
