将非零θ_13与太阳中微子区的非标准相互作用混淆

Confusing non-zero theta_13 with non-standard interactions in the solar neutrino sector

A. Palazzo, J. W. F. Valle

摘要:

当在标准的双味振荡框架中解释时,太阳和KamLAND数据处于轻微的紧张状态,并且这可以在允许混合角θ_13的非零值的情况下得到缓解。在这里,我们表明,同样,非标准的变味相互作用(FCI),可能干预太阳中微子的传播,同样能够缓解这种紧张局势,因此构成了一个潜在的来源,在确定θ_13的混乱。通过在FCI条件下对太阳和KamLAND数据进行完整的三味分析,我们定量描述了d-type夸克前向散射过程中nu_e和nu_tau之间非标准跃迁的矢量耦合eps_eτ^dV和θ_13之间存在的简并度。我们发现,与现有的界限兼容的大小为eps_eτ^dV ~ 10%的耦合可以模拟最新分析所指示的θ_13的非零值。

英文摘要:

Solar and KamLAND data are in slight tension when interpreted in the standard two-flavor oscillations framework and this may be alleviated allowing for a non-zero value of the mixing angle theta_13. Here we show that, likewise, non-standard flavor-changing interactions (FCI), possibly intervening in the propagation of solar neutrinos, are equally able to alleviate this tension and therefore constitute a potential source of confusion in the determination of theta_13. By performing a full three-flavor analysis of solar and KamLAND data in presence of FCI we provide a quantitative description of the degeneracy existing between theta_13 and the vectorial coupling eps_eτ^dV characterizing the non-standard transitions between nu_e and nu_tau in the forward scattering process with d-type quarks. We find that couplings with magnitude eps_eτ^dV ~ 10%, compatible with the existing bounds, can mimic the non-zero values of theta_13 indicated by the latest analyses.
