0 v 2 7 A pr 2 00 4 Neutrino oscillations in low density medium
For the case of small matter effects: V ≪ ∆m 2 /2E, where V is the matter potential, we develop the perturbation theory using ǫ ≡ 2V E/∆m 2 as the expansion parameter. We derive simple and physically transparent formulas for the oscillation probabilities in the lowest order in ǫ which are valid for an arbitrary density profile. They can be applied for the solar and supernova neutrinos propagati...
متن کاملA New Treatment of Neutrino Oscillations in Medium
A new more rigorous and accurate method for treating neutrino oscillations in the context of the MSW effect in a medium is proposed. This leads to a new type of resonance condition which for small mixing angles puts rather stringent conditions on Eν/δm . The implications on the solar neutrino problem are discussed. IOA-304/94 April 1994 One of the most important questions of the physics beyond ...
متن کاملMedium effects in string-dilaton-induced neutrino oscillations
We consider the unconventional way to interpret the current data on solar neutrino oscillations as derived recently by Halprin and Leung from a string model based on the existence of the string dilaton field which remains massless in the low-energy world. The equivalence principle violation entailed by the existence of a massless dilaton may then produce neutrino oscillations even for neutrinos...
متن کاملMedium Effects for Terrestrial and Atmospheric Neutrino Oscillations
Matter effects in neutrino propagation translate into effective parameters for the oscillation and fake CPand CPT-odd quantities, even in a scenario, such as ∆12 = 0, where no genuine CP violation is present. This fact seems to impose severe restrictions on the determination of intrinsic parameters of the system from long-baseline experiments. We show, however, that the resonance in the effecti...
متن کاملEarth matter density uncertainty in atmospheric neutrino oscillations
Abstract That muon neutrinos νμ oscillating into the mixture of tau neutrinos ντ and sterile neutrinos νs has been studied to explain the atmospheric νμ disappearance. In this scenario, the effect of Earth matter is a key to determine the fraction of νs. Considering that the Earth matter density has uncertainty and this uncertainty has significant effects in some neutrino oscillation cases, suc...
