Updated detection prospects for relic neutrinos using coherent scattering

نویسندگان

چکیده

We review the existing proposals to detect relic neutrinos using coherent scattering of a neutrino wind on test mass. By considering transformation momentum between reference frames, we demonstrate that induced acceleration scales with square mass for unclustered neutrinos, contrary literature. In addition, show there is large contribution this effect from neutrino-electron scattering, which can exceed neutrino-nucleus component by nearly an order magnitude. Unfortunately, find even enhancement are no experiments or capable detecting method.

Gravitational clustering of relic neutrinos and implications for their detection

We study the gravitational clustering of big bang relic neutrinos onto existing cold dark matter (CDM) and baryonic structures within the flat ΛCDMmodel, using both numerical simulations and a semi-analytical linear technique, with the aim of understanding the neutrinos’ clustering properties for direct detection purposes. In a comparative analysis, we find that the linear technique systematica...

Possible detection of relic neutrinos and their mass

Recently the possibility was widely discussed that a large fraction of the highest energy cosmic rays may be decay products of Z bosons which were produced in the resonant annihilation of ultrahigh energy cosmic neutrinos on cosmological relic neutrinos. If one takes this so-called Zburst scenario seriously, one may infer the mass of the heaviest relic neutrino as well as the necessary ultrahig...

Decays of Supernova Relic Neutrinos

We propose that future observation of supernova relic neutrino (SRN) can be used to probe neutrino decay models. We focus on invisible (e.g., Majoron) decays, and work out the general solution of SRN kinetic equations in the presence of oscillations plus decay. We then apply the general solution to specific decay scenario, and show that the predicted SRN event rate can span the whole range belo...

Quantum coherence of relic neutrinos.

We argue that in at least a portion of the history of the Universe the relic background neutrinos are spatially extended, coherent superpositions of mass states. We show that an appropriate quantum mechanical treatment affects the neutrino mass values derived from cosmological data. The coherence scale of these neutrino flavor wave packets can be an appreciable fraction of the causal horizon si...

The Physics of Relic Neutrinos

We report on the main results presented at the workshop on The Physics of Relic Neutrinos. The study of relic neutrinos involves a broad spectrum of problems in particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. Features of baryogenesis and leptogenesis could be imprinted in the properties of the relic neutrino sea. Relic neutrinos played a crucial role in the big bang nucleosynthesis. Being the hot...
