abstract

We present new $\nu_\mu\rightarrow\nu_e$, $\nu_\mu\rightarrow\nu_\mu$, $\overline{\nu}_\mu\rightarrow\overline{\nu}_e$, and $\overline{\nu}_\mu\rightarrow\overline{\nu}_\mu$ oscillation measurements by the NOvA experiment, with a 50% increase in neutrino-mode beam exposure over the previously reported results. The additional data, combined with previously published neutrino and antineutrino data, are all analyzed using improved techniques and simulations. A joint fit to the $\nu_e$, $\nu_\mu$, $\overline{\nu}_e$, and $\overline{\nu}_\mu$ candidate samples within the 3-flavor neutrino oscillation framework continues to yield a best-fit point in the normal mass ordering and the upper octant of the $\theta_{23}$ mixing angle, with $\Delta m^{2}_{32} = (2.41\pm0.07)\times 10^{-3}$ eV$^2$ and $\sin^2\theta_{23} = 0.57^{+0.03}_{-0.04}$. The data disfavor combinations of oscillation parameters that give rise to a large asymmetry in the rates of $\nu_e$ and $\overline{\nu}_e$ appearance. This includes values of the CP-violating phase in the vicinity of $\delta_\text{CP} = \pi/2$ which are excluded by $>3\sigma$ for the inverted mass ordering, and values around $\delta_\text{CP} = 3\pi/2$ in the normal ordering which are disfavored at 2$\sigma$ confidence.

    hep-ex 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5 of 10

    First joint C/O double-differential νμ CC0πNp cross sections in δpT–δαT and pN–cosθμ show current generators fail to describe the data.

  2. Invisible decay of solar neutrinos at dark matter experiments

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Combining XENONnT, PandaX-4T, and LZ data gives the first CEνNS-based limit on invisible solar-neutrino decay, and a future xenon detector could beat dedicated solar experiments by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude.

  3. A Novel Neutrino Mass Matrix

    hep-ph 2025-08 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    A neutrino mass matrix texture with correlations m12=m13 and m33=2i m12 is claimed to fix the hierarchy, octant, and CP phases, but the supporting model and RG analysis are incomplete.

  4. Neutrino mass generation in asymptotically safe gravity

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In asymptotically safe gravity, the Weinberg operator is shown to be irrelevant, so Standard Model neutrinos cannot get masses without new fields; type-I seesaw scales are bounded from above.

  5. Sterile-active resonance: A global qualitative picture

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An analytic effective theory of the sterile-active MSW resonance in the (3+1) model reveals that only three channels, P(νe→νe), P(ν̄e→ν̄e), and P(ν̄μ→ν̄τ), carry unsuppressed on-peak resonance effects.

  6. Origin of cosmological neutrino mass bounds: background $\textit{versus}$ perturbations

    astro-ph.CO 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The CMB bound on the sum of neutrino masses comes mostly from the background energy density of massive neutrinos, not from their free-streaming effects.

  7. Individual Neutrino Masses From a Supernova

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Using time-of-flight delays of the three neutrino mass eigenstates across sharp supernova features, a galactic supernova at 10 kpc could individually constrain or measure neutrino masses at JUNO, with precision that d...

  8. Probing non-unitarity of the PMNS matrix in P2SO and comparison with DUNE

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Projected GLoBES sensitivities show DUNE constrains the non-unitarity parameters α11 and |α21| better, while P2SO wins on α33 (and marginally α22); non-unitarity also distorts mass-hierarchy, octant, and CP-violation ...

  9. Elastic neutrino-electron scattering perspectives at nuclear reactors

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Projections show CLOUD and TAO could improve low-energy weak mixing angle measurements to 8-11% via elastic neutrino-electron scattering, with competitive magnetic moment and NSI limits.

  10. A Rephasing Invariant Formula for the Dirac CP Phase and General Perturbative Expansion: Prospects for DUNE and T2HK

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A closed-form rephasing-invariant expression for the Dirac CP phase and a first-order expansion show charged-lepton mixing can shift the phase by up to about 30 degrees, within the expected reach of DUNE and T2HK.

  11. Neutrino spin oscillations near a black hole

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Neutrinos scattered by a black hole's accretion disk undergo non-negligible spin flip from the toroidal magnetic field alone, contrary to earlier studies.

  12. Testing the RG Running of the Leptonic Dirac CP Phase with Reactor Neutrinos

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The JUNO-TAO reactor experiment could constrain the renormalization-group running beta function of the Dirac CP phase to about βδ ≈ 0.1, if spectrum-shape systematics are controlled.

  13. On the Blueprint of Active Galaxies Producing Neutrinos

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Neutrinos from active galaxies are produced in compact X-ray-bright coronae within about ten Schwarzschild radii of the black hole, and such sources may supply the diffuse neutrino flux.

  14. Dark Dimension Right-handed Neutrinos Confronted with Long-Baseline Oscillation Experiments

    hep-ph 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    T2K and NOvA data exclude dark-dimension neutrino models with bulk mass |c| < ~0.1 eV for a 10 µm extra dimension.

  15. On T-Invariance Violation in Neutrino Oscillations and Matter Effects

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 4.0 of 10

    Matter-induced T-invariance violation in neutrino oscillations requires an asymmetric matter potential along the neutrino path, and for Earth-bound experiments the effect is numerically tiny.
