abstract
It is shown that the results of the Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino experiment, interpreted in terms of nu_mu<--->nu_tau flavor transitions, can probe possible decoherence effects induced by new physics (e.g., by quantum gravity) with high sensitivity, supplementing current laboratory tests based on kaon oscillations and on neutron interferometry. By varying the (unknown) energy dependence of such effects, one can either obtain strong limits on their amplitude, or use them to find an unconventional solution to the atmospheric nu anomaly based solely on decoherence.

Non-Markovian dephasing revives and protects quantum resources in polarized hyperon pairs, with a stable hierarchy of coherence over discord over entanglement across BESIII channels.
First JUNO data yields competitive bounds on decoherence and invisible decay parameters in neutrino oscillations while preserving standard oscillation measurements.
Constructs an effective Lindblad master equation for neutrino oscillations in Schwarzschild and Kerr spacetimes that incorporates curvature-enhanced decoherence and predicts flavor distortions and coherence loss observable by IceCube-Gen2, KM3NeT, and P-ONE.
The DMP neutrino oscillation approximation is reframed as a degenerate-eigenvalue resummation that replaces a divergent parameter with a uniformly bounded one, and closed-form Jacobians for uncertainty propagation are collected.
