New interactions in neutrino oscillations with three light flavors
If one assumes solar and LSND neutrino oscillations to explain the corresponding data, then the atmospheric neutrino deficit cannot be accommodated within the Standard Model with three light flavors, unless one ignores the data’s zenith-angle dependence. We propose a novel solution to this problem by postulating large anomalous diagonal ντ -quark interactions which affect νμ − ντ oscillations t...
متن کاملNeutrino oscillations with three flavors in matter: Applications to neutrinos traversing the Earth
Analytic formulas are presented for three flavor neutrino oscillations in matter in the plane wave approximation. We calculate in particular the time evolution operator in both mass and flavor bases. We also find the transition probabilities expressed as functions of the vacuum mass squared differences, the vacuum mixing angles, and the matter density parameter. The application of this to neutr...
متن کاملSolar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations with three flavors.
We analyze the solar and the atmospheric neutrino problems in the context of three flavour neutrino oscillations. We assume a mass hierarchy in the vacuum mass eigenvalues μ3 ≫ μ2 ≥ μ1, but make no approximation regarding the magnitudes of the mixing angles. We find that there are small but continuous bands in the parameter space where the constraints imposed by the current measurements of Ga, ...
متن کاملAn exact analytic description of neutrino oscillations in matter with exponentially varying density for arbitrary number of neutrino species
Exact analytical expressions in terms of generalized confluent hypergeometric functions for the transition amplitudes of neutrino oscillations in presence of matter are computed for an arbitrary number of species. The density of matter is assumed to be exponentially decaying. The results can be used for the description of matter-induced neutrino oscillations in the Sun which can take place when...
متن کاملMatter Enhanced Neutrino Oscillations with a Realistic Earth Density Profile
Step function approximations of the Earth matter density profile have been used by several authors, see e.g. Refs. [1,2], for the analysis of matter effects in neutrino oscillation experiments. In order to investigate the quality of this approximation, we have developed methods to numerically calculate the transition probability amplitudes in a realistic matter density profile. Calculations wer...
