چکیده

Rcccnt experiments suggest that uT may be a pseudo-Dirac neutrino wi1.h m, x 17 keV. In general, if such a neutrino is to be consistent with constraink from nucleosynthesis, one needs to give up the MSW solution to the solar neut,rino problem and the singlet-majoron so1ution.t.o the energy density problem. Also, t.he dista.nce required for vT to oscillate int.o it.s st.erile Dira,c partner becomes unohserva.bly large.

Pseudo-dirac neutrinos: a challenge for neutrino telescopes.

Neutrinos may be pseudo-Dirac states, such that each generation is actually composed of two maximally mixed Majorana neutrinos separated by a tiny mass difference. The usual active neutrino oscillation phenomenology would be unaltered if the pseudo-Dirac splittings are deltam(2) less, similar 10(-12) eV(2); in addition, neutrinoless double beta decay would be highly suppressed. However, it may ...

Pseudo-Supersymetry and the Domain-Wall/Cosmology Correspondence

The correspondence between domain-wall and cosmological solutions of gravity coupled to scalar fields is explained. Any domain wall solution that admits a Killing spinor is shown to correspond to a cosmology that admits a pseudo-Killing spinor: whereas the Killing spinor obeys a Dirac-type equation with hermitian ‘mass’-matrix, the corresponding pseudo-Killing spinor obeys a Dirac-type equation...

epresenting Pronouns in Logical Form: Computational Constraints and Linguistic Evidence

In this paper, we discuss the representation of pronouns in logical form for the purpose of handling verb phrase ellipsis. In particular, we discuss two factors which influence the representation of pronouns in a computational model. The first is computational, the other linguistic. Both factors must be attended to in order to construct a good representation for pronouns in logical form. We rev...

Ranks of modules relative to a torsion theory

Relative to a hereditary torsion theory $tau$ we introduce a dimension for a module $M$, called {em $tau$-rank of} $M$, which coincides with the reduced rank of $M$ whenever $tau$ is the Goldie torsion theory. It is shown that the $tau$-rank of $M$ is measured by the length of certain decompositions of the $tau$-injective hull of $M$. Moreover, some relations between the $tau$-rank of $M$ and c...

Probing Pseudo-Dirac Neutrino through Detection of Neutrino Induced Muons from GRB Neutrinos

The possibility to verify the pseudo-Dirac nature of neutrinos is investigated here via the detection of ultra high energy neutrinos from distant cosmological objects like GRBs. The very long baseline and the energy range from ∼ TeV to ∼ EeV for such neutrinos invokes the likelihood to probe very small pseude-Dirac splittings. The expected secondary muons from such neutrinos that can be detecte...
