Methods and stability tests associated with the sterile neutrino search using improved high-energy $\nu_\mu$ event reconstruction in IceCube

Methods and stability tests associated with the sterile neutrino search using improved high-energy $\nu_\mu$ event reconstruction in IceCube

We provide supporting details for the search for a 3+1 sterile neutrino using data collected over eleven years at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. The analysis uses atmospheric muon-flavored neutrinos from 0.5 to 100\, TeV that traverse the Earth to reach the IceCube detector, and finds a best-fit point at $\sin^2(2\theta_{24}) …
