We find that 3+1 has a best fit of Delta m^2_41 = 1.75 eV^2 with a Delta chi^2 [null-min] (dof) of 52.34 (3). The 3+2 fit has a Delta chi^2 [null-min] (dof) of 56.99 (7). Bayesian credible intervals are shown for the first time for a 3+1 model. These are found to be in agreement with frequentist intervals. The results of these new fits favor a higher Delta m^2 value than previous studies, which may have an impact on future sterile neutrino searches su"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1602.00671","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
