摘要
Neutrino oscillation models involving one extra mass eigenstate beyond the standard three (3 + 1) are fit to global short baseline experimental data and the recent IceCube nu(mu) + (nu) over bar (mu) disappearance search result. We find a best fit of Delta m(41)(2) = 1.75eV(2) with Delta chi(2)(null-min)/d.o.f: of 50.61/4. We find that the combined IceCube and short baseline data constrain theta(34) to < 80 degrees(< 6 degrees) at 90% C. L. for Delta m(41)(2) approximate to 2(6) eV(2), which is improved over present limits. Incorporating the IceCube information provides the first constraints on all entries of the 3+1 mixing matrix.
