abstract
We describe nuFATE Neutrino Fast Attenuation Through Earth, a very rapid method of accurately computing the attenuation of high-energy neutrinos during their passage through Earth to detectors such as IceCube, ANTARES or KM3Net, including production of secondary neutrinos from $\tau^\pm$ lepton decay. We then use this method to quantify the error on attenuation due to uncertainties in the isotropic neutrino spectrum, the composition of the Earth, and the parton distribution functions. We show that these can be as large as 20%, which can significantly impact reconstructed astrophysical neutrino parameters, as well as searches for new physics. An implementation of this algorithm is provided as a public code.

Probing Neutrino Flavor Composition with the Glashow Resonance at Tau Air-Shower Neutrino Telescopes
Tau air-shower telescopes can potentially measure the PeV \bar{\nu}_e/(\nu_\tau+\bar{\nu}_\tau) ratio via the Glashow resonance, but standalone sensitivity only clearly separates \bar{\nu}_e-rich sources from standard...

New Constraints on Neutrino-Dark Matter Interactions: A Comprehensive Analysis
Most benchmark neutrino-dark matter couplings adopted in previous studies are excluded when laboratory meson and Z decay bounds are combined with cosmological and astrophysical constraints, leaving only special galact...

The Highest-Energy Neutrino Event Constrains Dark Matter-Neutrino Interactions
KM3-230213A limits dark matter-neutrino scattering to below about 1e-22 cm^2/GeV at 220 PeV, but most simple dark matter models are excluded by unitarity above MeV masses.

Illuminating Very Heavy Dark Matter in the Earth with Tau Neutrinos
Tau neutrino regeneration lets IceCube constrain dark matter annihilation in Earth's core for masses from 10^5 to 10^10 GeV, setting new upper limits on the spin-independent scattering cross section.

Neutrino Diffusion within Dark Matter Spikes
Neutrinos diffusing through dense dark matter spikes around supermassive black holes can be delayed by days, but the accompanying flux suppression means dark matter alone probably cannot explain the observed 100+ day ...

High-Energy Neutrino Tomography of the Earth's Interior with IceCube
IceCube's 10.7-year muon-neutrino sample yields the most precise weak-interaction constraints on Earth's shell densities, mass, and polar moment of inertia, consistent with PREM and gravity.

Exploring ultra-high energy neutrino experiments through the lens of the transport equation
Using a line-of-sight transport formalism, the paper finds a 3.1 sigma tension between the KM3NeT ultra-high-energy event and IceCube non-observation under a diffuse power-law flux, with stronger tension for steady po...

Phenomenology of Neutrino-Dark Matter Interaction in DSNB and AGN
Upper limits on the scalar-dark-matter neutrino coupling are derived from DSNB attenuation projected for DUNE/Hyper-K and from IceCube data on NGC 1068 and TXS 0506+056, assuming DM spikes around AGN black holes.
