Discrete symmetry, neutrino magnetic moment, and the 17-keV neutrino.
The problem of generating large transition magnetic moments for nearly massless neutrinos in a truly three–generation case is discussed. A model to achieve the same by exploiting an octahedral symmetry is presented. The scheme also accomodates a radiatively generated mass of 17keV for a pseudo–Dirac neutrino that decays rapidly through the Majoron channel. 1 Bitnet address: debchou@tifrvax Two ...
متن کاملDark-Matter Electric and Magnetic Dipole Moments
We consider the consequences of a neutral dark-matter particle with a nonzero electric and/or magnetic dipole moment. Theoretical constraints, as well as constraints from direct searches, precision tests of the standard model, the cosmic microwave background and matter power spectra, and cosmic gamma rays, are included. We find that a relatively light particle with mass between an MeV and a few...
متن کاملLeptongenesis in models with keV sterile neutrino dark matter
The modern cosmology provides at least two experimental evidences for the existence of new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). One of them is the baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU). The other one is the Dark Matter (DM) which constitutes most of the gravitating mass in the Universe. To be consistent with the observations, the DM candidate should be a very weakly interacting particle. Fo...
متن کاملConstraining the neutrino magnetic dipole moment from white dwarf pulsations
Pulsating white dwarf stars can be used as astrophysical laboratories to constrain the properties of weakly interacting particles. Comparing the cooling rates of these stars with the expected values from theoretical models allows us to search for additional sources of cooling due to the emission of axions, neutralinos, or neutrinos with magnetic dipole moment. In this work, we derive an upper b...
متن کاملNeutrino Magnetic Moment
Current experimental and observational limits on the neutrino magnetic moment are reviewed. Implications of the recent results from the solar and reactor neutrino experiments for the value of the neutrino magnetic moment are discussed. It is shown that spin-flavor precession in the Sun is suppressed.
