Neutrino Oscillations and Lorentz Violation
Most data acquired to date by experiments in particle physics are successfully described by the minimal Standard Model (SM). One exception is the observation of neutrino oscillations, which are now well established and provide a compelling indication that the minimal SM requires modification. The inclusion of small masses in the neutrino sector of the SM suffices to describe the bulk of the exp...
متن کاملLorentz Invariance of Neutrino Oscillations
It is shown that, in spite of the appearances, the standard expression for the oscillation probability of ultrarelativistic neutrinos is Lorentz invariant. Flavor is the quantum number that distinguishes the different types of quarks and leptons. It is a Lorentz-invariant quantity. For example, an electron is seen as an electron by any observer, never as a muon. Therefore, the probability of fl...
متن کاملProbing Lorentz Invariance Violation in Atmospheric Neutrino Oscillations with a Neutrino Telescope
One possible feature of quantum gravity may be the violation of Lorentz invariance. In this paper we consider one particular manifestation of the violation of Lorentz invariance, namely modified dispersion relations for massive neutrinos. We show how such modified dispersion relations may affect atmospheric neutrino oscillations. We then consider how neutrino telescopes, such as ANTARES, may be...
متن کاملGlobal three-parameter model for neutrino oscillations using Lorentz violation
A model of neutrino oscillations is presented that has only three degrees of freedom and is consistent with existing data. The model is a subset of the renormalizable sector of the Standard-Model Extension (SME), and it offers an alternative to the standard three-neutrino massive model. All classes of neutrino data are described, including solar, reactor, atmospheric, and LSND oscillations. The...
متن کاملSearch for a Lorentz invariance violation in atmospheric neutrino oscillations using MACRO data
The energy spectrum of neutrino-induced upward-going muons in MACRO was analysed in terms of special relativity principles violating effects, keeping standard mass-induced atmospheric neutrino oscillations as the dominant source of νμ ←→ ντ transitions. The data disfavour these exotic possibilities even at a sub-dominant level, and stringent 90% C.L. limits are placed on the Lorentz invariance ...
