    A New Solution of the Solar Neutrino Flux

    Get PDF
    We report a new solution to explain the observed deficit of the solar neutrino flux by Homestake, Kamiokande II and III, GALLEX and SAGE experiments. We use the matter mixing and the helicity oscillation in the twisting magnetic fields in the sun. Our model predicts the short (seasonal) and long (11 years) time variations of the solar neutrino flux. Three kinds of data observed by Homestake, Kamiokande, GALLEX and SAGE detectors are reproduced well if the mixing angle and the squared mass difference are in the small area around sin22θ0.01\sin^2 2\theta \simeq 0.01 and Δm21.3×108eV2\Delta m^2\simeq 1.3\times 10^{-8}{\rm eV}^2.Comment: 13 pages and 4 figures (not included), in phyzzx, OU-HET-19

    Absorption Probability of De Sitter Horizon for Massless Fields with Spin

    Get PDF
    The evaluation of the absorption coefficients are important for particle emission caused by Hawking radiation. In the case of cosmological particle emission from the event horizon in De Sitter space, it is known that the scalar wave functions are solved in terms of Legendre functions. For fields with higher spin, the solution has been examined with low frequency approximation. We shows that the radial equations of the fields with spin 0,1/2,10,1/2,1 and 22 can be solved analytically in terms of the hypergeometric functions. We calculate the absorption probability using asymptotic expansion for high frequency limit. It turns out that the absorption coefficients are universal to all bosonic fields; They depend only on the angular momentum and not spin. In the case of spin 1/21/2 fermions, we can also find non-vanishing absorption probability in contrast to the previously known result.Comment: 7 pages, Late

    Classically Integrable Cosmological Models with a Scalar Field

    Get PDF
    New classes of classically integrable models in the cosmological theories with a scalar field are obtained by using freedoms of defining time and fields. In particular, some models with the sum of exponential potentials in the flat spatial metric are shown to be integrable. The model with the Sine-Gordon potential can be solved in terms of analytic continuation of the non-periodic Toda field theory.Comment: 10 pages, Late

    A variety of lepton number violating processes related to Majorana neutrino masses

    Get PDF
    A Majorana type of the neutrino mass matrix induces a class of lepton number violating processes. Cross sections of these reactions are given in terms of the neutrino mass matrix element, and a semi-realistic event rate is estimated. These processes provide mass and mixing parameters not directly accessible by the neutrino oscillation experiments. If these processes are discovered with a larger rate than given here, it would imply a new physics of the lepton number violation not directly related to the Majorana neutrino mass, such as R-parity violating operators in SUSY models.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figur

    Sweeping the Space of Admissible Quark Mass Matrices

    Get PDF
    We propose a new and efficient method of reconstructing quark mass matrices from their eigenvalues and a complete set of mixing observables. By a combination of the principle of NNI (nearest neighbour interaction) bases which are known to cover the general case, and of the polar decomposition theorem that allows to convert arbitrary nonsingular matrices to triangular form, we achieve a parameterization where the remaining freedom is reduced to one complex parameter. While this parameter runs through the domain bounded by a circle with radius R determined by the up-quark masses around the origin in the complex plane one sweeps the space of all mass matrices compatible with the given set of data.Comment: 18 page

    Phenomenological bounds in inclusive neutrino interactions

    Full text link
    Using expressions for the nunu and anti nunu charged and neutral current cross sections and the electroproduction structure function integral and positivity requirements of the sea contribution, bounds are obtained on sigma/sup anti nu N//sigma/sup anti nu N/, and sigma/sup anti nu N//sub nc//sigma/sup nu N/ /sub nc/ in the standard model. A bound on sigma/sup anti nu N//sigma/sup nu N/ obtained with a V + A term anti p'gammagamma/sub mu/(1-gammagammasub5sub 5)n is used to rule out such a term in the current. A plot of sigma/sup nu N//sub nc/ + sigma/ sup anti nu N//sub nc/ versus sigma/sup nu N//sub nc/ - sigma/sup anti nu N//sub nc/ is introduced to analyze the neutral current data. A new relation connecting moments of y and y distributions at a particular point y/sub n/ for nunu and anti nunu interactions is found. The results do not depend on the neutral current data. (auth
