abstract

We explore, mostly using data from solar neutrino experiments, the hypothesis that the neutrino mass eigenstates are unstable. We find that, by combining $^8$B solar neutrino data with those on $^7$Be and lower-energy solar neutrinos, one obtains a mostly model-independent bound on both the $\nu_1$ and $\nu_2$ lifetimes. We comment on whether a nonzero neutrino decay width can improve the compatibility of the solar neutrino data with the massive neutrino hypothesis.

Exploring neutrino loss with diffuse astrophysical neutrino fluxes

hep-ph · 2026-05-13 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

IceCube diffuse neutrino data constrains neutrino loss from new physics via energy conservation, yielding bounds that vary with attenuation energy dependence and source redshift assumptions while potentially affecting spectral index fits.
