Avoiding BBN Constraints on Mirror Models for Sterile Neutrinos
We point out that in models that explain the LSND result for neutrino
oscillation using the mirror neutrinos, the big bang nucleosynthesis constraint
can be avoided by using the late time phase transition that only helps to mix
the active and the sterile neutrinos. We discuss the astrophysical as well as
cosmological implications of this proposal.Comment: 5 pages, latex; more discussion added; results unchange
