A Supersymmetric Solution to the Solar and Atmospheric Neutrino Anomalies
The formalism for R-parity violation-induced flavor change in the three-neutrino case is developed, and used to derive the corresponding flavor change probabilities in matter. Applied to the solar and atmospheric neutrino fluxes, it is argued that the observed anomalies, including the zenith dependence for the atmospheric case, could be due to such interactions. It is shown that if this is the ...
متن کاملAn Active-Sterile Neutrino Transformation Solution for r-Process Nucleosynthesis
We discuss how matter-enhanced active-sterile neutrino transformation in the νe ⇀↽ νs and ν̄e ⇀↽ ν̄s channels could enable the production of the rapid neutron capture (r-process) nuclei in neutrino-heated supernova ejecta. In this scheme the lightest sterile neutrino would be heavier than the νe and split from it by a vacuum mass-squared difference of 3 eV <∼ δmes <∼ 70 eV with vacuum mixing angl...
متن کاملFate of the Sterile Neutrino
In light of recent Super-Kamiokande data and global fits that seem to exclude both pure νμ → νs oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos and pure νe → νs oscillations of solar neutrinos (where νs is a sterile neutrino), we reconsider four-neutrino models to explain the LSND, atmospheric, and solar neutrino oscillation indications. We argue that the solar data, with the exception of the Cl results,...
متن کاملLight Unstable Sterile Neutrino
The three massless active (doublet) neutrinos may mix with two heavy and one light sterile (singlet) neutrinos so that the induced masses and mixings among the former are able to explain the present data on atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations. If the LSND result is also to be explained, one active neutrino mass eigenstate must mix with the light sterile neutrino. A specific model is pro...
متن کاملSterile Neutrino as a Bulk Neutrino
If light sterile neutrinos are needed to understand the neutrino puzzles, as is currently indicated, a major theoretical challenge is to understand why its mass is so small. It is a more serious problem than understanding the small mass of the familiar neutrinos. We discuss a new way to solve this problem by identifying the sterile neutrino as gauge neutral fermion propagating in the bulk of a ...
