2 Outstanding Questions

22 SN Neutrinos SN 1987A: unexpected bonanza
Kamiokande II (12) IMB (8) Baksan (5) ( LSD: 5 hours earlier) m νe < 5.7 eV (95% CL) : Some well-motivated assumptions m νe < 30 eV : Model Independent S-K, SNO, LVD, KamLAND, AMANDA, MiniBOONE,… are ready !! Galactic SN: ~104 events Physics of SN explosion, some neutrino properties ( mag.mom., life time, charge radius,..) We have to wait. No control ! Sensitivity of ~ 3 eV due to intrinsic spread in time of neutrino burst If one sees a signal due to black hole formation , down to ~ 1.8 eV

23 Relic Neutrinos Neutrinos decoupled (relativistic at the time)
1.3 MeV for νe ~ at T = 1.5 MeV for νµ , τ T = ( ) x eV For m ~ O ( eV), they are non-relativistic, in fact since z ~ 103 ( m / eV) ν ν ν Neutrino number density: n + n = n = ( ± 0.1) / cm3 ρ = ∑ m ( n + n ) 3 ν ν γ 11 Gershtein-Zeldovich Cowsik-McClelland ν νj j νj j Simply from Ω h2 < Ω h , we have ∑ m < 13 eV. ~ ν ~ M νj j How to detect them is one of the most challenging tasks in 21st century.

24 ● As long as HDM is relativistic, HDM perturbations within the horizon
Neutrinos as HDM ● As long as HDM is relativistic, HDM perturbations within the horizon are erased by “ Free – Streaming”. ● Free-streaming stops when HDM becomes non-relativistic at Zn-r . → If HDM dominates, top-down structure formation but, observation → bottom-up.

25 CMBR Relic neutrinos with mass of O (eV) are HDM (relativistic at decoupling). Due to free streaming, LSS formation is top-down, which is not the case. Free streaming HDM suppresses power spectrum at small wave lengths.

[ sin ( 2 θ ) , Δm ] Plot ⇒ 0 ≤ θ ≤ π / 4 covers 0 ≤ sin (2θ) ≤ 1 2 ( Light side ) Same for θ and π / 2 - θ Good enough for oscillations in vacuum What about π / 4 ≤ θ ≤ π / 2 ? ( Dark side ) 2 This can be covered if Δm < 0 is allowed. Use 0 ≤ θ ≤ π with a fixed sign for Δm . 2 2 2 ( Use either sin θ or tan θ ) Good for log scale

29 Summary m , m , m < O (eV) Two neutrinos are heavier than 8 x eV. No lower mass bound exists for the lightest neutrino. If Σ m < 8 x eV, the inverted hierarchy is ruled out. θ < , θ = 35 , θ = 45 : U < If U < 0.08 , it is difficult to measure θ and CP violation. Current cosmological data ⇒ Σ m ≤ O (eV) Lyman alpha forest, weak gravitational lensing, sharper image of CMBR ~ 1 2 3 -3 -3 ~ j o o o ~ ~ 13 12 23 e3 e3 13 j
