“Dip” in IceCube

Good fit w/ ϕ(Ε)∝E-2

Missing events

at subPeV M. Aartsen et al. 2014

Possible InterpretationSources w/ ϕ(Ε)∝E-2

• Astrophysical (GRB, SNR)• Cosmogenic (pp, pγ…)• New Physics (DM decay, annihilation)

Origins w/ dip• Statistical fluctuation

-a few events expected (2σ consistent)• New Physics (neutrino interactions)

Well-motivated model

Gauging (muon number - tau number) 𝜈μ(+1), 𝜈τ(-1)… anti-particles(opposite sign)

couple with Z’-boson (mZ’~10MeV!!)

Advantages• Anomaly-free (well-defined theory)• natural explanation of maximal mixing

for atmospheric neutrino θ23~π/4• No experimental difficulty

unlike U(1)Le-Lμ, U(1)Le-Lτ

(e.g. beam-dump experiment)
