Increasing the effective number of neutrinos with decaying particles

Capturing Relic Neutrinos with β–decaying Nuclei

We summarize a novel approach which has been recently proposed for direct detection of low energy neutrino backgrounds such as the cosmological relic neutrinos, exploiting neutrino/antineutrino capture on nuclei that spontaneously undergo β decay.

A Precision Calculation of the Effective Number of Cosmological Neutrinos

A precision calculation of the effective number of cosmological neutrinos

The neutrino energy density of the Universe can be conveniently parametrized in terms of the so-called effective number of neutrinos, N eff ν . This parameter enters in several cosmological observables. In particular it is an important input in those numerical codes, like CMBFAST, which are used to study the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy spectrum. By studying the neutrino decoupling wi...

Decaying Neutrinos and the Flattening of the Galactic Halo

The recently constructed Dehnen-Binney set of mass models for the Galaxy is used to show that the decaying neutrino theory for the ionisation of the interstellar medium (Sciama 1990a, 1993) requires the neutrino halo of the Galaxy to be as flattened as is observationally permitted (axial ratio q = 0.2 or shape E8). The argument involves an evaluation of the contribution of red-shifted decay pho...

investigation of effective parameters on the rigidity of light composite diaphragms (psscb) by fem

در این رساله با معرفی سقف های psscb متشکل از ترکیب ورق های فولادی ذوزنقه ای و تخته های سیمانی الیافی به عنوان سقف های پیش ساخته (سازگار با سیستم سازه ای قاب های فولادی سبک) به بررسی پارامترهای موثر بر صلبیت سقف، پرداخته می شود. در تحقیق حاضر ابتدا به مدل سازی دو نمونه سقف آزمایش شده، به روش اجزاء محدود با استفاده از نرم افزار تحلیلی abaqus ver 6.10 پرداخته شده است. نمونه های ساخته شده تحت اعما...
