1206.6903 (Arman Esmaili et al.)

Constraining Sterile Neutrinos with AMANDA and IceCube Atmospheric
Neutrino Data
   [PDF]

Arman Esmaili, Francis Halzen, O. L. G. Peres
We demonstrate that atmospheric neutrino data accumulated with the AMANDA and the partially deployed IceCube experiments constrain the allowed parameter space for a hypothesized fourth sterile neutrino beyond the reach of a combined analysis of all other experiments. We also illustrate the sensitivity of the completed IceCube detector, that is now taking data, to the parameter space of 3+1 model.
