nu_e->nu_s oscillations with large neutrino mass in NuTeV?

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We propose an explanation of the NuTeV anomaly in terms of oscillations of electron neutrinos into sterile neutrinos. We derive an approximate average transition probability P(nu_e->nu_s) = 0.21 +- 0.07, which is compatible with other neutrino data if the mass-squared difference Delta m^2 that drives the oscillations is about 10 - 100 eV^2.
