Description
IceCube, a neutrino detector located at the South Pole, is an ideal testing ground for the hypothetical 1 eV sterile neutrino, which is motivated by the short-baseline neutrino anomalies. In a normal ordering 3+1 sterile neutrino scheme, the decay of the heaviest neutrino mass eigenstate to lighter eigenstates is unconstrained. In this talk, we will show how such a decay could modify the results of a sterile neutrino search in IceCube.
