چکیده

We have obtained a new limit on the electron neutrino effective charge radius from a new evaluation of the weak mixing angle by a combined fit of all electron(anti)neutrino electron elastic scattering measurements. Weak mixing angle is found to be sin θW = 0.259±0.025 in the low energy regime below 100 MeV. The electron neutrino charge radius squared is bounded to be in the range −0.13× 10 cm < 〈r2 νe〉 < 3.32 × 10 cm at 90% C.L. Both results improve previously published analyses. We also discuss perspectives of future experiments to improve these constraints.

The effective neutrino charge radius

It is shown that at one-loop order a neutrino charge radius (NCR) may be defined, which is ultraviolet finite, does not depend on the gauge-fixing parameter, nor on properties of the target other than its electric charge. This is accomplished through the systematic decomposition of physical amplitudes into effective self-energies, vertices, and boxes, which separately respect electroweak gauge ...

Exploration of CPT violation via time-dependent geometric quantities embedded in neutrino oscillation through fluctuating matter

We propose a new approach to explore CPT violation of neutrino oscillation through a fluctuating matter based on time-dependent geometric quantities. By mapping the neutrino oscillation onto a Poincaré sphere structure, we obtain an analytic solution of master equation and further define the geometric quantities, i.e., radius of Poincaré sphere and geometric phase. We find that the mixing proce...

پراکندگی نوترینوی میونی از روی الکترون قطبیده به الکترون و نوترینو در فضا- زمان ناجابه‌جایی

For neutrino scattering from polarized electron, the weak interaction term in the cross section is significantly suppressed by the polarized term. The magnetic moment term does not receive any correction from the electron polarization. Hence, the study of the magnetic moment of neutrinos through scattering from the polarized electron leads to a stronger bound on the neutrino magnetic moment com...

How well do we (and will we) know solar neutrino fluxes and oscillation parameters?

Individual neutrino fluxes are not well determined by the four operating solar neutrino experiments. Assuming neutrino oscillations occur, the pp electron neutrino flux is uncertain by a factor of 2, the B flux by a factor of 5, and the Be flux by a factor of 45. For matter-enhanced oscillation ~MSW! solutions, the range of allowed differences of squared neutrino masses, Dm, varies between 4310...

Implications for Solar Neutrino Oscillations from Super-Kamiokande and SNO Data

Super-Kamiokande uses neutrino-electron elastic scattering to measure the recoil electron spectrum and zenith-angle dependence of solar B neutrinos. SNO has measured the B neutrino–deuteron charged-current reaction rate. The elastic scattering rate, spectrum and zenith-angle dependence in conjunction with the charged-current reaction rate favors active neutrino oscillations at large mixing angl...
