Lorentz factor = 10 21 for m = 0.1 eV. Age of Uni is 10 18 sec, But age of is 10 18 /10 21 sec = 1 millisecond ! And it doesn’t even see the stream of radiation rushing past it – untouched !

SLAC Summer School 2004 Thomas J. Weiler, Vanderbilt University & CERN BBN limits on N and asymmetry Kneller & Steigman Competing effects: 1.Weak int’n rate equilibrates e +n p+e -, as n/p ~ exp[- m N /T DC ] ; So more e less neutrons less He/H 2.Expansion rate (monotonic with N ) decouples weak int’n; So more N faster movie, earlier hotter T DC and more neutrons more He/H H S H, S = So one extra species is S=0.08 Best fit is N=0.25, L=2.5%

SLAC Summer School 2004 Thomas J. Weiler, Vanderbilt University & CERN Neutrino parameters: fundamental to physics, and a tool for astrophysics/cosmology As an astro tool, useful NOW (e.g. L e = L = L ) ; As a physics window, the view is unclear.

SLAC Summer School 2004 Thomas J. Weiler, Vanderbilt University & CERN Tegmark cosmic cinema - CDM http://www.hep.upenn.edu/~max/cmb/movies.html Increasing the total density of matter (baryons + cold dark matter) pushes the epoch of matter-radiation equality back in time and moves the peak scale (the horizion size at that time) to the right.
28
SLAC Summer School 2004 Thomas J. Weiler, Vanderbilt University & CERN Tegmark cosmic cinema - HDM Increasing the density of massive neutrinos suppresses all scales smaller than a certain cutoff, which in turn shifts to the left as you increase the neutrino mass (and density)
