The renormalization-group running of neutrino mixing is undetectable

Gabriela Barenboim, Mauricio Bustamante, Qinrui Liu

Quantum corrections make the parameters of a theory depend on an arbitrary renormalization scale, . The renormalization-group (RG) running of neutrino masses and mixing is a sta…

Measurement of the neutrino cross section across the TeV scale using IceCube data

Rasmi Hajjar, Mauricio Bustamante, Sergio Palomares-Ruiz

Neutrinos interact with matter exclusively through the weak force, resulting in extremely small cross sections that are difficult to measure. At TeV energies, neutrino-nucleon inte…

Magnus: neutrino oscillation probabilities for any Hermitian Hamiltonian, any number of flavors, and any matter profile

Mauricio Bustamante

Interpreting neutrino oscillation measurements requires computing the probability that a neutrino born with one flavor is detected with another. In vacuum and in matter of constant…

Electron stability constrains neutrino time delays

Mauricio Bustamante, José Manuel Carmona, José Luis Cortés +2

Superluminal neutrino propagation, induced by Lorentz-invariance violation (LIV), is strongly constrained by vacuum pair emission, , a process ordinarily forbidd…

Are neutrinos Majorana? Fixed-target and high-energy astrophysical searches decide

Gabriela Barenboim, Mauricio Bustamante, Qinrui Liu

Determining whether the neutrino is a Dirac or Majorana fermion remains a fundamental open question. Conventional searches rely on neutrinoless double beta decay, but this electron…

Astrophysical bounds on the high-energy evolution of neutrino mixing

Mauricio Bustamante, Qinrui Liu, Gabriela Barenboim

While conventional oscillation experiments measure neutrino mixing parameters with high precision, these measurements are strictly confined to sub-TeV scales. At higher energies, r…

New limits on neutrino decay from high-energy astrophysical neutrinos

Victor B. Valera, Damiano F. G. Fiorillo, Ivan Esteban +1

Since neutrinos have mass differences, they could decay into one another. But their lifetimes are likely long, even when shortened by new physics, so decay likely impacts neutrinos…
