Probing Large Extra Dimensions With IceCube
read the original abstract
In models with Large Extra Dimensions the smallness of neutrino masses can be naturally explained by introducing gauge singlet fermions which propagate in the bulk. The Kaluza-Klein modes of these fermions appear as towers of sterile neutrino states on the brane. We study the phenomenological consequences of this picture for the high energy atmospheric neutrinos. For this purpose we construct a detailed equivalence between a model with large extra dimensions and a (3 + n) scenario consisting of three active and n extra sterile neutrino states, which provides a clear intuitive understanding of Kaluza-Klein modes. Finally, we analyze the collected data of high energy atmospheric neutrinos by IceCube experiment and obtain bounds on the radius of extra dimensions.

Dark Dimension Right-handed Neutrinos Confronted with Long-Baseline Oscillation Experiments
Dark dimension right-handed neutrino models are confronted with T2K and NOvA long-baseline oscillation data, yielding exclusion limits on model parameters while remaining compatible with standard three-neutrino oscillations.
