Summary: This paper presents a search for deviations from the prediction of standard 3-flavour atmospheric neutrino oscillations using data from the ANTARES neutrino telescope. The analysis of ten years of data collected from 2007 to 2016 shows no clear evidence of deviations from standard interactions.

Summary: Ultra-high-energy neutrinos can travel from their sources in astrophysical environments and point back to their origins due to their neutral nature and weak interactions. By utilizing the Earth as a neutrino converter, instruments on the Earth, sub-orbit, and satellites can detect signals from extensive air showers induced by neutrinos.

Summary: This study demonstrates that low hadronic recoil events can be used to measure parameters of neutrino flux and detector models, and can help discriminate among parameters affecting the neutrino flux model. By fitting a large sample of low-v events obtained from MINERvA exposed to the NuMI medium-energy beam, it was found that the best-fit flux parameters were within their a priori uncertainties. Additionally, the energy scale of muons reconstructed in the MINOS detector was shifted by 3.6%, suggesting the potential application of this technique in other experiments such as DUNE operating at similar energies.

Summary: We report the first observation of the diffuse cosmic neutrino flux with the Baikal-GVD neutrino telescope. An excess of events over the expected atmospheric background is observed using cascadelike events collected by Baikal-GVD in 2018-2021, which is consistent with the high-energy diffuse cosmic neutrino flux observed by IceCube. The null cosmic flux assumption is rejected with a significance of 3.05σ. Assuming a single power law model of the astrophysical neutrino flux with identical contribution from each neutrino flavor, the best-fit parameter values are found to be: the spectral index yastro = 2.58±0.27-0.33 and the flux normalization Oastro = 3.04±1.52-1.21 per one flavor at 100 TeV.

Summary: The proposed LEvEL experiment aims to establish a neutron detector near the Large Hadron Collider to explore low-energy neutrinos and measure their cross sections. Detailed simulations have been conducted to determine neutrino production at the LHC beam dump and estimate signal and backgrounds for an experiment exploiting the forward direction of the beam dump. The experiment could achieve measurements of neutrino-argon charged current and neutrino-nucleus coherent scattering cross sections with high precision.

Summary: This study systematically investigates new physics scenarios that can modify the interactions between neutrinos and matter, with a focus on the importance of tau neutrino telescopes in probing physics associated with the second and third generations. By analyzing experimental configurations and numerically solving propagation equations, the study obtains the sensitivities of upcoming tau neutrino telescopes to charged Higgs and leptoquark models. The combination of different telescopes is complementary in exploring new physics.
