Description
The neutrino portal may lead us to a sector of heavy neutral leptons with additional interactions besides mixing with neutrinos.
I will discuss three main developments in constraining such "dark neutrino sectors" using neutrino experiments. Firstly, I present a new generator to simulate neutrino upscattering to HNLs and their subsequent decays.
Secondly, I will discuss new strategies to overcome the curse of dimensionality of this parameter space using kernel density estimators.
And finally, I will apply these tools to current data to find constraints from the MINERvA and T2K experiments.
