abstract

The NOvA experiment has made a $4.4\sigma$-significant observation of $\bar\nu_{e}$ appearance in a 2 GeV $\bar\nu_{\mu}$ beam at a distance of 810 km. Using $12.33\times10^{20}$ protons on target delivered to the Fermilab NuMI neutrino beamline, the experiment recorded 27 $\bar\nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \bar\nu_{e}$ candidates with a background of 10.3 and 102 $\bar\nu_{\mu} \rightarrow \bar\nu_{\mu}$ candidates. This new antineutrino data is combined with neutrino data to measure the oscillation parameters $|\Delta m^2_{32}| = 2.48^{+0.11}_{-0.06}\times10^{-3}$ eV$^2/c^4$, $\sin^2 \theta_{23} = 0.56^{+0.04}_{-0.03}$ in the normal neutrino mass hierarchy and upper octant and excludes most values near $\delta_{\rm CP}=\pi/2$ for the inverted mass hierarchy by more than 3$\sigma$. The data favor the normal neutrino mass hierarchy by 1.9$\sigma$ and $\theta_{23}$ values in the upper octant by 1.6$\sigma$.

  1. Timing-Based Search for Magnetic Monopoles with the NOvA Detector on the Surface

    hep-ex 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    NOvA's 7.5-year search found zero magnetic monopole candidates and sets a 90% confidence upper limit of 8e-16 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1 for monopole speeds near 0.001c and masses above 1e9 GeV.

  2. Forward backward CP asymmetry in $\tau^- \to K \pi \nu_{\tau}$ in the Left-Right Inverse seesaw model

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    The Left-Right Inverse Seesaw model generates a non-decoupling scalar operator that enhances the differential forward-backward CP asymmetry A_CP^FB(s) near K* and K0* resonances in τ → Kπν_τ while leaving the integrat...

  3. Revisiting Gauge Ambiguities for DUNE Precision

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gauge-restoration and form-factor-scale ambiguities in the plane-wave impulse approximation produce 2-10% shifts in quasielastic cross sections, exceeding DUNE's few-percent target; an off-shell spinor method is proposed.

  4. Normalizing Flow-Assisted Nested Sampling on Type-II Seesaw Model

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A RealNVP normalizing flow trained inside nested sampling accelerates Bayesian scans of the Type-II seesaw parameter space and yields posterior constraints on scalar masses and couplings.

  5. Studies of nucleon isovector structure with the PACS10 superfine lattice

    hep-lat 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Lattice QCD on the PACS10 superfine ensemble yields nucleon axial, induced pseudoscalar, and pion-nucleon couplings consistent with experiment and prior lattice results, with no strong lattice-spacing dependence.

  6. Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis to probe trilinear $R$-parity violating SUSY scenarios and possible LHC signatures

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Bayesian MCMC fit to neutrino, Higgs, and flavor data constrains the trilinear R-parity-violating couplings λ_i33 and λ'_i33 to at most ~10^-4, with tanβ below 15, in bino- and stop-LSP supersymmetric scenarios.

  7. Probing neutrino mass ordering with supernova neutrinos at NO$\nu$A including the effect of sterile neutrinos

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Simulations indicate NOvA could distinguish normal from inverted neutrino mass ordering at 5 sigma for a supernova at 5 kiloparsecs, while the neutral-current channel could flag sterile neutrinos.

  8. Neutrino mass ordering obscured by non-standard interactions

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Allowing electron-tau non-standard neutrino interactions in the T2K and NOvA data removes the preference for normal mass ordering and even creates a mild preference for inverted ordering.

  9. Physics of parameter correlations around the solar-scale enhancement in neutrino theory with unitarity violation

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A new first-order perturbation theory for solar-scale neutrino oscillations with non-unitary mixing shows that δ and the non-unitarity α parameters form physical, convention-independent phase correlations.

  10. Probing Quasi-Dirac Neutrino Oscillations at Long Baseline Experiments

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    GLoBES simulations show that DUNE can probe quasi-Dirac sterile-neutrino mixing down to θ_sa ≈ 0.05 with uniform coverage, while current NOvA+T2K data constrains θ_sa ≳ 0.08.

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    For 235.5 MeV KDAR muon-neutrino charged-current scattering on carbon, NuWro reproduces JSNS² missing-energy data better than GENIE or GiBUU, but all generators miss part of the data.

    Fermilab's NuMI beamline sustained 1 MW operation with a 1.018 MW record average and documents horn and baffle failure lessons for LBNF.
