位于南极的 IceCube 中微子望远镜测量了约 320 GeV 至 20 TeV 范围内的大气 μ 子中微子光谱，作为天顶角和能量的函数，以寻找轻惰性中微子的振荡特征。在两项独立开发的分析中，均未观察到 ν_{μ} 或 ν[over ¯]_{μ} 异常消失的证据，每项分析均使用一年的大气中微子数据。对 3+1 模型的参数空间设置了新的排除限制，其中 μ 子反中微子经历强烈的 Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein 共振振荡。在 90% 置信水平下，排除限扩展到 Δm^{2}∼0.3 eV^{2} 处的 sin^{2}2θ_{24}≤0.02。外观实验（包括 LSND 和 MiniBooNE）的全局分析中允许的区域在 |U_{e4}|^{2} 的全局最佳拟合值的大约 99% 置信水平下被排除。
The IceCube neutrino telescope at the South Pole has measured the atmospheric muon neutrino spectrum as a function of zenith angle and energy in the approximate 320 GeV to 20 TeV range, to search for the oscillation signatures of light sterile neutrinos. No evidence for anomalous ν_{μ} or ν[over ¯]_{μ} disappearance is observed in either of two independently developed analyses, each using one year of atmospheric neutrino data. New exclusion limits are placed on the parameter space of the 3+1 model, in which muon antineutrinos experience a strong Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein-resonant oscillation. The exclusion limits extend to sin^{2}2θ_{24}≤0.02 at Δm^{2}∼0.3 eV^{2} at the 90% confidence level. The allowed region from global analysis of appearance experiments, including LSND and MiniBooNE, is excluded at approximately the 99% confidence level for the global best-fit value of |U_{e4}|^{2}.
