Neutrino Oscillations and Dark Matter
The significance of light massive neutrinos as hot dark matter is outlined. The power of neutrino oscillation experiments with respect to detect such neutrinos in the eV-region is discussed. Present hints for neutrino oscillations in solar, atmospheric and LSND data are reviewed as well as future experiments and their potential.
متن کاملA Model for Neutrino Warm Dark Matter and Neutrino Oscillations
The muonand tau-neutrinos with the mass in the keV range, which are allowed in a low reheating temperature cosmology, can compose the warm dark matter of the universe. A model of four light neutrinos including the keV scale νμ and ντ is studied, which combines the seesaw mechanism and the Abelian flavor symmetry. The atmospheric neutrino anomaly is due to the νμ − ντ oscillation. The solar neut...
متن کاملNeutrino Backgrounds to Dark Matter Searches and Directionality Citation
Neutrino-nucleus coherent scattering cross sections can be as large as 10−39 cm, while current dark matter experiments have sensitivities to WIMP coherent scattering cross sections several orders of magnitude smaller. With large target masses and few keV recoil energy detection thresholds, coherent scattering of solar neutrinos becomes an irreducible background. Directional dark matter detectio...
متن کاملNeutrino oscillations as a probe of dark energy.
We consider a class of theories in which neutrino masses depend significantly on environment, as a result of interactions with the dark sector. Such theories of mass varying neutrinos were recently introduced to explain the origin of the cosmological dark energy density and why its magnitude is apparently coincidental with that of neutrino mass splittings. In this Letter we argue that in such t...
متن کاملNeutrino oscillations, Lorentz=CPT violation, and dark energy
If dark energy (DE) couples to neutrinos, then there may be apparent violations of Lorentz=CPT invariance in neutrino oscillations. The DE-induced Lorentz=CPT violation takes a specific form that introduces neutrino oscillations that are energy independent, differ for particles and antiparticles, and can lead to novel effects for neutrinos propagating through matter. We show that ultra-high-ene...
