Capturing Relic Neutrinos with β–decaying Nuclei
We summarize a novel approach which has been recently proposed for direct detection of low energy neutrino backgrounds such as the cosmological relic neutrinos, exploiting neutrino/antineutrino capture on nuclei that spontaneously undergo β decay.
متن کاملDark Matter and Structure Formation with Late Decaying Particles
Since it became evident that the CDM model for cosmic structure formation predicts smaller power on large scales than observed, many alternatives have been suggested. Among them, the existence of late decaying particle can cure it by delaying the beginning of the matter domination and increasing the horizon length at that time. We discuss the realization of this scenario and present the light n...
متن کاملDecaying Neutrinos and the Flattening of the Galactic Halo
The recently constructed Dehnen-Binney set of mass models for the Galaxy is used to show that the decaying neutrino theory for the ionisation of the interstellar medium (Sciama 1990a, 1993) requires the neutrino halo of the Galaxy to be as flattened as is observationally permitted (axial ratio q = 0.2 or shape E8). The argument involves an evaluation of the contribution of red-shifted decay pho...
متن کاملStructure formation with a decaying MeV tau neutrino and a KeV majoron
We consider the scenario of large scale structure formation with tau neutrino with mass in the MeV range and lifetime of order of years which decays into a massive majoron with KeV mass. The latter are the present-day cold dark matter particles. In contrast to the usual collisionless dark matter, the majorons have a relatively strong self-interaction and the picture of structure formation is ra...
متن کاملWeighing neutrinos with large-scale structure
While it is established that the effect of neutrinos on the evolution of cosmic structure is small, the upper limits derived from large-scale structure could help significantly to constrain the absolute scale of the neutrino masses. Current results from cosmology set an upper limit on the sum of the neutrino masses of ∼ 1 eV, somewhat depending on the data sets used in the analyses and assumed ...
