A generalized self-veto probability for atmospheric neutrinos
read the original abstract
Neutrino telescopes such as IceCube search for an excess of high energy neutrinos above the steeply falling atmospheric background as one approach to finding extraterrestrial neutrinos. For samples of events selected to start in the detector, the atmospheric background can be reduced to the extent that a neutrino interaction inside the fiducial volume is accompanied by a detectable muon from the same cosmic-ray cascade in which the neutrino was produced. Here we provide an approximate calculation of the veto probability as a function of neutrino energy and zenith angle.

Visible inelasticity as a probe of tau flavor content of astrophysical neutrinos
Visible inelasticity in starting tracks can statistically separate tau and muon neutrino events, yielding competitive sensitivity to the tau-to-muon flux ratio with current IceCube exposures.

Are neutrinos Majorana? Fixed-target and high-energy astrophysical searches decide
Correlated HNL discovery at SHiP and flavor ratio shifts in astrophysical neutrinos at telescopes would establish neutrinos as Majorana fermions.

Astrophysical bounds on the high-energy evolution of neutrino mixing
High-energy astrophysical neutrinos can constrain the running of neutrino mixing parameters with energy, with future multi-detector setups forecast to set strong bounds despite astrophysical uncertainties.
