摘要:

我们表明,弱去耦,大爆炸核合成,光子去耦时代的自洽和耦合处理可以用来提供新的见解和中微子部门的轻元素丰度和宇宙微波背景观测量的高精度测量物理约束。超标准模型物理学在宇宙学中的影响,特别是在中微子部门,通过比较预测对五个观测值:重子能量密度,氦丰度,氘丰度,中微子的有效数量,和轻中微子质量本征态的总和进行评估。我们给出的例子,暗辐射,中微子静止质量,轻子数的限制,和轻和重的无菌中微子的情况。

英文摘要:

We show that a self-consistent and coupled treatment of the weak decoupling, big bang nucleosynthesis, and photon decoupling epochs can be used to provide new insights and constraints on neutrino sector physics from high-precision measurements of light element abundances and cosmic microwave background observables. Implications of beyond-standard-model physics in cosmology, especially within the neutrino sector, are assessed by comparing predictions against five observables: the baryon energy density, helium abundance, deuterium abundance, effective number of neutrinos, and sum of the light neutrino mass eigenstates. We give examples for constraints on dark radiation, neutrino rest mass, lepton numbers, and scenarios for light and heavy sterile neutrinos.
