超越MSW效应:稠密介质中的中微子

Beyond the MSW effect: Neutrinos in a dense medium

Antonio Capolupo, Salvatore Marco Giampaolo, Aniello Quaranta

摘要:

本文提出了一种稠密介质中的中微子振荡理论,它超越了描述MSW效应所用的有效物质势。我们展示了中微子状态的纯度如何通过中微子与环境的相互作用而降低,以及中微子-物质相互作用如何成为退相干的来源。我们提出了新的中微子与轻子相互作用的振荡公式,并进行了数值分析,表现出从超高能中微子通过地球传播的MSW公式的偏差。特别是,我们表明,在高密度和/或高中微子能量,消失的跃迁几率MSW效应时,考虑到散射是非零的。

英文摘要:

We present a theory of neutrino oscillations in a dense medium which goes beyond the effective matter potential used in the description of the MSW effect. We show how the purity of the neutrino state is degraded by neutrino interactions with the environment and how neutrino--matter interactions can be a source of decoherence. We present new oscillation formulae for neutrinos interacting with leptons and carry out a numerical analysis which exhibits deviations from the MSW formulae for propagation through the Earth of ultra-high energy neutrinos. In particular, we show that at high density and/or high neutrino energy, the vanishing transition probabilities derived for MSW effect, are non zero when the scattering is taken into account.
