光惰性中微子的传播速度明显快于光

Apparent faster than light propagation from light sterile neutrinos

Steen Hannestad, Martin S. Sloth

摘要:

OPERA实验的最新数据似乎表明中微子的传播速度比光快。一个可能的物理解释是存在着轻的无菌中微子,当观察者被限制在标准模型的4D膜上时,它们可以在更高维的体中传播,并达到明显的超光速。这种模型的优点是可以很容易地解释SN 1987 A没有观测到超光速中微子的现象。在这里,我们讨论了这样一个模型的现象学意义,并表明它可以提供一个解释所观察到的中微子比光传播快。

英文摘要:

Recent data from the OPERA experiment seem to point to neutrinos propagating faster than light. One possible physics explanation for such a result is the existence of light sterile neutrinos which can propagate in a higher dimensional bulk and achieve apparent superluminal velocities when measured by an observer confined to the 4D brane of the standard model. Such a model has the advantage of easily being able to explain the non-observation of superluminal neutrinos from SN1987A. Here we discuss the phenomenological implications of such a model and show that it can provide an explanation for the observed faster than light propagation of neutrinos.
