Description
We discuss some of the manifold ways in which sterile neutrinos (SM singlet fermions mixing with neutrinos) affect particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. In the first part of the talk, we focus on eV-scale sterile neutrinos as a possible explanation for various short-baseline oscillation anomalies. In the second part, we discuss several ways in which sterile neutrinos can affect dark matter physics and early Universe cosmology.
