On Sterile neutrino explanation of LSND and MiniBooNE anomalies
We examine the compatibility between existing experimental data and a recently proposed explanation of the LSND and MiniBooNE anomalies, given in terms of a sterile neutrino $N$ whose decay is dominated by a radiative mode.

Abstract We review the status of light sterile neutrino searches, motivated by the original Short BaseLine (SBL) anomalies. Here, we discuss how sterile neutrino properties can be constrained by different types of neutrino oscillation experiments (considering appearance or disappearance probes in different oscillation channels) and non ...

Neutrino masses are likely to be a manifestation of the right-handed, or sterile neutrinos. The number of sterile neutrinos and the scales of their Majorana masses are unknown. We explore theoretical arguments in favor of the high and low scale seesaw mechanisms, review the existing experimental results, and discuss the astrophysical hints regarding ...

Sterile neutrino overview [PDF]
The basic theory and experimental hints for light sterile neutrinos at eV$^2$ mass scale are reviewed. Besides the LSND/MiniBooNE, reactor and Gallium anomalies, other recent experimental results searching for light sterile neutrinos are also presented.

Berry Phase in Neutrino Oscillations
We study the Berry phase in neutrino oscillations for both Dirac and Majorana neutrinos. In order to have a Berry phase, the neutrino oscillations must occur in a varying medium, the neutrino-background interactions must depend on at least two ...

An Active-Sterile Neutrino Transformation Solution for r-Process Nucleosynthesis
We discuss how matter-enhanced active-sterile neutrino transformation in both neutrino and antineutrino channels could enable the production of the rapid neutron capture (r-process) nuclei in neutrino-heated supernova ejecta.

Search for Sterile Neutrino Mixing Using Three Years of Icecube Deepcore Data [PDF]
We present a search for a light sterile neutrino using three years of atmospheric neutrino data from the DeepCore detector in the energy range of approximately 10–60 GeV. DeepCore is the low-energy subarray of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory.
