“Being able to look in detail at these different event outcomes is a real strength of our detector,” Zeller says. “The data is steering us away from the likely explanations and pointing toward something more complex and interesting, which is really exciting.”

While the first analyses weighed in on the sterile neutrino, additional analyses could provide more information about exotic explanations, including dark matter, axion-like particles, the hypothetical Z-prime boson and beyond. There’s even a chance it could still be a sterile neutrino, hiding in even more unexpected ways.
