Sterile neutrino suggestions
LSND
Evidence for neutrino oscillations from the observation of ¯νe appearance in a ¯νμ beam, Phys Rev D, Nov 2001
Supposedly needs sterile neutrinos to explain 3.8σ excess from Fig 24 which looks completely unimpressive.
MiniBooNE https://www-boone.fnal.gov/
In 2013, also reported a 2.8σ excess (Fig. 1), Improved Search for ν¯μ→ν¯e Oscillations in the MiniBooNE Experiment

SUSY

An example of how to generate a SUSY exclusion plot given in David Petyt's code from 2011,
at \\cern.ch\dfs\Workspaces\d\DaveC\Analysis\Petyt in folders "susycode" and "plots" that has
a README describing how to run the programme. Email 8 Sep 2011.
