中微子天文学导论

Introduction to neutrino astronomy

Andrea Gallo Rosso, Carlo Mascaretti, Andrea Palladino, Francesco Vissani

摘要:

这篇文章是中微子天文学的介绍,由天体粒子物理学家撰写,面向天文学家。虽然重点是中微子天文学的成就和目标,而不是与粒子物理学相关的方面,但我们将介绍粒子物理学概念,以了解依赖于中微子特性的那些方面。详细的布局如下:在节~第一章介绍中微子,研究它们之间的相互作用,介绍中微子探测器和望远镜。在Sect.~ 2,我们讨论太阳中微子,已被检测到,是激烈的(理论和实验)研究的问题。在Sect.~ 3,我们关注超新星中微子,它告诉我们一个非常戏剧性的天体物理事件,并可以告诉我们很多关于引力坍缩的现象。在Sect.~ 4、讨论了最高能量中微子,这是一个非常新的和活跃的研究领域。在Sect.~第五章,我们回顾了中微子振荡现象,并评估了它与中微子天文学的关系。最后,我们提供了一个简短的整体评估和总结节。6.选择材料-即,并不是所有的成就都得到了审查-而且它只停留在介绍性的水平,但努力突出当前的研究问题。为了帮助初学者,我们倾向于限制参考文献的列表,尽可能选择评论作品和书籍。

英文摘要:

This writeup is an introduction to neutrino astronomy, addressed to astronomers and written by astroparticle physicists. While the focus is on achievements and goals in neutrino astronomy, rather than on the aspects connected to particle physics, we will introduce the particle physics concepts needed to appreciate those aspects that depend on the peculiarity of the neutrinos. The detailed layout is as follows: In Sect.~1, we introduce the neutrinos, examine their interactions, and present neutrino detectors and telescopes. In Sect.~2, we discuss solar neutrinos, that have been detected and are matter of intense (theoretical and experimental) studies. In Sect.~3, we focus on supernova neutrinos, that inform us on a very dramatic astrophysical event and can tell us a lot on the phenomenon of gravitational collapse. In Sect.~4, we discuss the highest energy neutrinos, a very recent and lively research field. In Sect.~5, we review the phenomenon of neutrino oscillations and assess its relevance for neutrino astronomy. Finally, we offer a brief overall assessment and a summary in Sect.~6. The material is selected - i.e., not all achievements are reviewed - and furthermore it is kept to an introductory level, but efforts are made to highlight current research issues. In order to help the beginner, we prefer to limit the list of references, opting whenever possible for review works and books.
