The neutrino velocity anomaly as an explanation of the missing observation of neutrinos in coincidence with GRB

TL;DR

This paper proposes that the neutrino velocity anomaly observed by OPERA can explain why no neutrinos have been detected in coincidence with Gamma-Ray Bursts, challenging previous assumptions about neutrino timing.

Contribution

It introduces a novel explanation linking neutrino velocity anomalies to the absence of coincident neutrino observations with GRBs.

Findings

Neutrino velocity anomaly can account for null GRB neutrino detections

OPERA's early neutrino arrival time supports the explanation

Revises expectations for neutrino timing in astrophysical events

Abstract

The search for neutrinos emitted in coincidence with Gamma-Bay Burst has been so far unsuccessfully. In this paper we show that the recent result reported by the OPERA Collaboration on an early arrival time of muon neutrinos with respect to the one computed assuming the speed of light in vacuum could explain the null search for neutrinos in coincidence with Gamma-Ray Burst.
