Neutrino interactions with ultralight axion-like dark matter

چکیده
In this work, we study the propagation of high energy neutrinos produced in extragalactic sources including effect a possible interaction with ultralight axion-like particles (UALP) mass $m_a\sim 10^{-22} {\rm eV}$ as constituents dark matter (DM) under assumption that their coupling to is dominant. We compute cross section and describe diffuse neutrino flux using transport equations for each eigenstate. This allows us obtain fluxes different flavors be observed at Earth telescopes assumptions flavor composition emitted normal ordering (NO) or an inverted (IO) masses. If UALPs same all ($g_{\nu a}$), find interactions change arriving on $g_{\nu a}\gtrsim 0.5\,{\rm GeV}^{-1}$, causing electron(muon) dominate NO(IO) case energies above $\sim 10^5\,{\rm GeV}$. Although current data ratios suggest UALP DM do not take place within range studied (particularly NO case) more needed improve precision experimentally measured composition.

Neutrino Interactions with Nuclei and Dark Matter
Even though the combined laboratory, astrophysical and cosmological evidence implies that neutrinos have masses, neutrinos provide only a small cosmic dark matter component. The study of solar neutrinos provides important information on nuclear processes inside the Sun as well as on matter densities. Moreover, supernova neutrinos provide sensitive probes for studying supernova explosions, neutr...
متن کاملCosmological constraints on neutrino plus axion hot dark matter
We use observations of the cosmological large-scale structure to derive limits on two-component hot dark matter consisting of mass-degenerate neutrinos and hadronic axions, both components having velocity dispersions corresponding to their respective decoupling temperatures. We restrict the data samples to the safely linear regime, in particular excluding the Lyman-α forest. Using standard Baye...
متن کاملAxion BEC Dark Matter
Cold dark matter axions thermalize through gravitational self-interactions and form a BoseEinstein condensate when the photon temperature reaches approximately 500 eV. Axion Bose-Einstein condensation provides an opportunity to distinguish axions from the other dark matter candidates on the basis of observation. The rethermalization of axions that are about to fall in a galactic potential well ...
متن کاملCosmological constraints on Neutrino - Dark Matter interactions
I summarize the results of a recent analysis where the cosmological effects of interactions of neutrinos with cold Dark Matter (DM) is investigated. This interaction produces diffusion-damped oscillations in the matter power spectrum, analogous to the acoustic oscillations in the baryon-photon fluid. I discuss the bounds from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey on the corresponding opacity defined as ...
