Structure of the neutrino and antineutrino

چکیده

The neutrino is involved in many of the unsolved areas of fundamental physics and cosmology, and therefore a better understanding of the causes of its behaviour is useful. This paper develops a conceptual theory for the internal structure of the neutrino, particularly the arrangement of its discrete field structures. The model is created using the concept of the cordus hyff emission directions (HEDs). Using the known quark composition of the neutron and proton, and the existing cordus models for their discrete field structures, and using the beta decay processes, we determine the discrete field structure of the neutrino by a reverseengineering process. The structure of the neutrino in HED notation is found to be v(r1 1 .a .t1 ) or variants thereof, and the antineutrino to be v(r1 1 .a .t1 ) etc. The results are consistent whether using beta decay, beta +, or electron capture. The results suggest that the neutrino is not its own antiparticle. Consequently neutrinoless double beta decay is predicted to be infeasible. The model predicts the neutrino has zero nominal mass, though a dynamic noise-mass is expected. The reasons why the neutrino moves at the speed of light are explained, and involve the engagement of its field structures, which are incomplete, with the fabric (spacetime). The gravitational bending of its trajectory is explained, even for a massless neutrino. This explanation requires the abandonment of both locality and the invariance of the vacuum-speed of light. The model also explains why neutrinos are always found with left-spin-hand, and antineutrinos with right, and suggests that the opposite structures are fundamentally unavailable. By moving away from the 0D point assumption of orthodox physics, cordus is able to generate a novel and radical model of the neutrino, and ground its behaviour in physically realistic interpretations.

NuTeV Structure Function Measurement

Abstract. The NuTeV experiment obtained high statistics samples of neutrino and antineutrino charged current events during the 1996-1997 Fermilab fixed target run. The experiment combines sign-selected neutrino and antineutrino beams and the upgraded CCFR iron-scintillator neutrino detector. A precision continuous calibration beam was used to determine the muon and hadron energy scales to a pre...

Antineutrino-neutrino and antineutrino-electron resonant annihilation through rho and other vector mesons

The ν̄e → π−π0 and νe+ → π+π0 reactions have a resonant structure whenever the energy of the s–channel equals the mass of a JP = 1 vector meson. The resonant cross sections are of the order 10−38 cm2 and correspond to cosmic ray antineutrino energies in the range 0.20 to 2.00 TeV. A similar structure occurs in the annihilation of cosmic ray antineutrinos with a relic (background) neutrino. For m...

Testing CPT Invariance with Neutrinos

We investigate possible tests of CPT invariance on the level of event rates at neutrino factories. We do not assume any specific model, but phenomenological differences in the neutrino-antineutrino masses and mixing angles in a Lorentz invariance preserving context, which could be induced by physics beyond the Standard Model. We especially focus on the muon neutrino and antineutrino disappearan...

Search for neutrino–antineutrino oscillations with a reactor experiment

The MIT Faculty has made this article openly available. Please share how this access benefits you. Your story matters. The disappearance of reactor antineutrinos in the Double Chooz experiment is used to investigate the possibility of neutrino-antineutrino oscillations arising due to the breakdown of Lorentz invari-ance. We find no evidence for this phenomenon and set the first limits on 15 coe...

Possible Neutrino-antineutrino Oscillation under Gravity and Its Consequences

We show that under gravity the effective masses for neutrino and antineutrino are different which opens a possible window of neutrino-antineutrino oscillation even if the rest masses of the corresponding eigenstates are same. This is due to CPT violation and possible to demonstrate if the neutrino mass eigenstates are expressed as a combination of neutrino and antineutrino eigenstates, as of th...

Pontecorvo neutrino-antineutrino oscillations: theory and experimental limits

We study Pontecorvo neutrino-antineutrino oscillations both in vacuum and in matter within a field theoretic approach, showing that this phenomenon can occur only if neutrinos have a Dirac-Majorana mass term. We find that matter effects suppress these oscillations and cannot explain the solar neutrino problem. On the contrary, a vacuum neutrino-antineutrino oscillations solution to this problem...
