Neutrino and Parity Violation in Weak Interaction
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that neutrino oscillation and Majorana type neutrino are not compatible with Special Theory of Relativity. Instead of the Majorana type neutrino, traditional neutrino (mν = 0) is considered with additional assumptions that νR and ν̄L neutrinos exist in nature and naturally thus parity is conserved. Besides, neutrino itself is considered as longitudinal vacuum-string oscillations. To explain parity conservation W bosons are suggested as momentary interacting states between e and virtual-positive(negative)-charge strings, respectively. With these postulations, an alternative explanation is also suggested for solar neutrino problem.

Parity Violation in Astrophysics
Core collapse supernovae are gigantic explosions of massive stars that radiate 99% of their energy in neutrinos. This provides a unique opportunity for large scale parity or charge conjugation violation. Parity violation in a strong magnetic field could lead to an asymmetry in the neutrino radiation and recoil of the newly formed neutron star. Charge conjugation violation in the neutrino-nucleo...
متن کاملFermi and the Theory of Weak Interactions
research is quantum field theory and high energy physics. The history of weak interactions starting with Fermi's creation of the beta decay theory and culminating in its modern avatar in the form of the electroweak gauge theory is described. Discoveries of parity violation, matter{antimatter asymmetry, W and Z bosons and neutrino mass are highlighted.
متن کاملParity Violation in Neutrino Transport and the Origin of Pulsar Kicks
In proto-neutron stars with strong magnetic fields, the neutrino-nucleon scattering/absorption cross sections depend on the direction of neutrino momentum with respect to the magnetic field axis, a manifestation of parity violation in weak interactions. We study the deleptonization and thermal cooling (via neutrino emission) of proto-neutron stars in the presence of such asymmetric neutrino opa...

Here I review some nuclear physics aspects of core-collapse supernovae concerning neutrinos. Studies of neutrino emission and interactions in supernovae are crucial to our understanding of the explosion mechanism, the heavy element nucleosynthesis, and pulsar proper motions. I discuss the effects of reduced neutrino opacities in dense nuclear matter on supernova neutrino emission and their impl...
