2 Outline Prologue: the physics of (massive) neutrinos IntroducBon: neutrinos and the history of the Universe Basics of Cosmology 1st ProducBon and decoupling of relic neutrinos 2nd

3 Outline The radiabon content of the Universe (N eff ) Neutrinos and Primordial Nucleosynthesis Neutrino oscillabons in the Early Universe 2nd Massive neutrinos as Dark MaNer 3rd

4 Outline Effects of neutrino masses and N eff on cosmological observables Present bounds on neutrino properbes from cosmology 3rd Future sensibvibes on neutrino physics from cosmology

5 Present bounds on neutrino properbes from cosmology

6 Neutrino masses Data on flavour oscilla/ons do not fix the absolute scale of neutrino masses ev 3 1 NH IH solar! (ev) 0.3 atm NORMAL atm INVERTED 0.1 solar m 0 (ev)

7 Neutrinos as Dark Ma<er Neutrinos are natural DM candidates h 2 = i m i 93.2 ev < 1 i m i 46 ev < m 0.3 m i 15 ev i They stream freely un/l non- rela/vis/c (collisionless phase mixing) Neutrinos are HOT Dark MaNer (large thermal mo/on) First structures to be formed when Universe became ma<er dominated are very large Ruled out by structure forma/on CDM Massive Neutrinos can s/ll be subdominant DM: limits on m from Structure Forma/on (combined with other cosmological data)

8 How to get a bound (measurement) of neutrino masses from Cosmology Fiducial cosmological model: (Ω b h 2, Ω m h 2, h, n s, τ, Σm ) DATA PARAMETER ESTIMATES

9 Cosmological Observables Recombination Hubble constant H0 & cosmic distances measurements: SN Ia and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) matter density fluctuations Large-Scale Structures [ galaxy / cosmic shear / Lyα ] LSS spectrum Photon momentum after decoupling CMB secondary anisotropy spectrum from J. Lesgourgues Photon density fluctuations before decoupling CMB primary anisotropy spectrum (temp+pol)

10 Cosmological Data CMB Temperature: Planck plus data from other experiments at large mul/poles (ACT, SPT ) CMB Polariza/on and lensing: Planck, Large Scale Structure: * Galaxy Clustering * Bias (Galaxy, ): Amplitude of the Ma<er P(k) * Lyman- α forest: independent measurement of power on small scales * Baryon acous/c oscilla/ons (BAO) Bounds on parameters from other data: SNIa (Ω m ), HST (h),

11 Cosmological Parameters: example SDSS Coll, PRD 69 (2004)

12 Cosmological bounds on neutrino mass(es) A unique cosmological bound on m DOES NOT exist! Different analyses have found upper bounds on neutrino masses, since they depend on The combina/on of cosmological data used The assumed cosmological model: number of parameters (problem of parameter degeneracies) The proper/es of relic neutrinos

13 The minimal ΛCDM model fits very well Planck data

14 1- parameter extensions of the ΛCDM model 95% CL limits Ext =BAO + JLA + H 0

15 1- parameter extensions of the ΛCDM model 68+95% Conf regions 0.06 ev Planck TT + lowp Planck TT,TE,EE + lowp Planck TT,TE,EE + lowp + BAO

16 Measuring N eff Indirect detec/on of CNB at 10-17σ All 68%CL

17 CMB alone (Planck TT+lowP): Σm < 0.72 ev + TE,EE+ lensing: Σm < 0.59 ev Planck TT+lowP+lensing+ext: Σm < 0.23 ev Measuring m with Planck All 95% CL.

18 Measuring m with Planck Cosmological upper limits on the sum of neutrino masses 3 NH IH 1 Planck TT+lowP! (ev) 0.3 Planck TT+lowP+ TE,EE+ lensing Planck TT+lowP+lensing+ext m 0 (ev)

19 Measuring m & N eff with Planck Results are prac/cally unchanged (example from Planck 2013) CMB alone (Planck+WP+HighL): Σm < 0.60 ev N e = With BAO: Σm < 0.28 ev N e = All 95% CL All 95% CL

20 Probing Direct the laboratory absolute neutrino bounds mass on scale m Searching for non- zero neutrino mass in laboratory experiments Tritium beta decay: measurements of endpoint energy 3 H! 3 He + e + e m β < 2.2 ev (95% CL) Mainz Future experiments (KATRIN) m( e ) ~ ev Neutrinoless double beta decay: if Majorana neutrinos (A, Z)! (A, Z + 2) + 2e experiments with 76 Ge, 130 Te and other isotopes: m ββ < ev, depending on NME
