Neutrino Oscillations in Four-dimension Space

چکیده
Quantum gravity contains incoherent microscopic models with stochastic metric. Decoherence appeared in these models have contributions from stochastic quantum Gravity, which is operating as an effective medium, as well as from conventional uncertainties in the energy of the neutrino (anti-neutrino) beam. All these contributions lead to damping factors modulating the oscillatory terms. In some theoretical models, the phenomenon of spacetime may be incorporated [1]. According to this picture, the singular microscopic fluctuations of the metric give the ground state of quantum gravity of the structure of a stochastic medium. The medium has the profound effect of CPT-violating [2] decoherence of quantum matter as it propagates. This may have experimentally observable consequences in principle [3]. One of the basic effects of gravitational de-coherence is the presence of factors which damp oscillatory terms or coherence. Space-time foam models do not consist exclusively of microscopic black holes, although there are the most popular models, another types of foam, inspired by brain-world scenarios [14]. We do not explain this subject here. The most important things here is that to discuss the neutrino oscillation. The neutrino oscillation can be studied in the stochastic quantum gravity environment [16]. Measurable quantities, such as transition amplitudes between neutrino flavors will be obtained by averaging over the stochastic variables hμν . The influence of the quantum gravity environment has a de-coherence effect on the neutrino state which is equivalent to a damping of the oscillations between neutrino flavors [13]. The determination of the particular

Short-Baseline Neutrino Oscillations at a Neutrino Factory
Within the framework of three-neutrino and four-neutrino scenarios that can describe the results of the LSND experiment, we consider the capabilities of short baseline neutrino oscillation experiments at a neutrino factory. We find that, when short baseline (L ∼ 100 km) neutrino factory measurements are used together with other accelerator-based oscillation results, the complete three-neutrino ...
متن کاملProbing Extra Dimensions with Neutrino Oscillations
In the braneworld scenario, gravity and neutrino oscillation can both be used to detect the presence of an extra dimension. We argue that neutrino oscillation is particularly suitable if the size of the extra dimension is small, in which case the signature for the extra dimension is the disappearance of active neutrino fluxes into the bulk, caused by the destructive interference from the Kaluza...
متن کاملGlobal analysis of neutrino oscillation data in four-neutrino schemes
We present an analysis of the global neutrino oscillation data in terms of four-neutrino mass schemes. We find that the strong preference of oscillations into active neutrinos implied by the latest solar as well as atmospheric neutrino data allows to rule out (2+2) mass schemes, whereas (3+1) schemes are strongly disfavoured by shortbaseline experiments. Our analysis shows that four-neutrino os...
متن کاملPhenomenology of Neutrino Oscillations
We review the status of several phenomenological topics of current interest in neutrino oscillations: (i) Solar neutrino oscillations after the first Sudbury Neutrino Observatory measurements, including both model-independent and model-dependent results; (ii) Dominant νμ → ντ oscillations of atmospheric and K2K neutrinos, and possible subdominant oscillations induced by either extra states or e...
متن کاملSterile-active neutrino oscillations and shortcuts in the extra dimension
We discuss a possible new resonance in active-sterile neutrino oscillations arising in theories with large extra dimensions. Fluctuations in the brane effectively increase the path-length of active neutrinos relative to the path-length of sterile neutrinos through the extra-dimensional bulk. Well below the resonance, the standard oscillation formulas apply. Well above the resonance, active-ster...
