Decay-Produced Neutrino Hot Dark Matter
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate different types of neutrino hot dark matter with respect to structure formation and anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR). The possibility of neutrino hot dark matter produced through the decay of a heavier neutrino by the process νH → νL+φ, where φ is a scalar particle, is discussed in detail. This type of dark matter can possibly be distinguished observationally from the standard neutrino dark matter by using new CMBR data from the upcoming satellite missions MAP and PLANCK.

Accommodating solar and atmospheric neutrino deficits, hot dark matter, and a double beta decay signal.
Neutrino mass explanations of the solar and atmospheric neutrino deficits and a hot dark matter component require one of three patterns of those masses, as already pointed out by us. Recently there have been indications of a non-vanishing amplitude for neutrino-less double beta decay. If this additional hint of neutrino mass is true, it would make even less likely the one unfavored pattern (a s...
متن کاملCP Violation in Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay and Neutrino Oscillation
Taking possible CP violations into account, we discuss constraints on lepton mixing angles obtained from neutrinoless double beta decay and from neutrino oscillation for three flavour Majorana neutrinos. From the CHORUS oscillation experiment, combined with the data from neutrinoless double beta decay, we show that the large angle solution for θ23 is improbable if the neutrino mass m3 of the th...
متن کاملBimaximal Neutrino Mixing and Neutrino Mass Matrix
We show that the bimaximal neutrino mixing pattern suggested by the solar and atmospheric neutrino data can be derived from the maximal, symmetric , four neutrino mixing in the limit that one of the neutrinos is made heavy. Imposing the constraints of no neutrinoless double beta decay and a 20% hot dark matter component of the universe leads to a three neutrino mass matrix recently suggested by...
متن کاملSearch for Neutrino Mass and Dark Matter in Underground Experiments
In this lecture we shall discuss two central problems of particle physics and cosmology. The neutrino mass is one of the key quantities in grand unified theories, and at the same time candidate for hot dark matter in the Universe. Supersymmetry is regarded as the most natural extension of present particle physics theories. The lighest SUSY particle, usually assumed to be the neutralino, is the ...
متن کاملNaturally degenerate neutrinos
The solar neutrino problem, atmospheric neutrino problem and the hot dark matter which seems to be required by galaxy formation can all be most economically described by three very degenerate neutrinos with a common mass of a few eV. Such neutrino masses could also be relevant for the recent data on double beta decay. We provide an existence proof for such a scenario by constructing an explicit...
