Probing the 2-3 leptonic mixing at high-energy neutrino telescopes
Abstract
We discuss the possibility to probe leptonic mixing parameters at high-energy neutrino telescopes in a model-independent way, using astrophysical neutron and pion sources. In particular we show how the octant of the 2-3 mixing angle might be determined independently of prior knowledge of the source, even when current uncertainties on the other mixing parameters are included. We also argue that non-trivial neutrino oscillation effects should be taken into account when using high-energy flavor ratios for astrophysical diagnostics.
