Explanation for the low flux of high energy astrophysical muon-neutrinos
read the original abstract
We consider the possibility that some exotic neutrino property is responsible for reducing the muon neutrino flux at high energies from distant neutrino sources; specifically, we consider (i) neutrino decay and (ii) neutrinos being pseudo-Dirac particles. This would provide a mechanism for the lack of high energy muons in the Icecube detector.

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.
