2 Class. Mechanics: Coupled Pendulums pendulums with same length l, mass m coupled by spring with strength k Free Oscillation of one pendulum: Eigenmodes Different eigenfrequencies = energies Mode a (II + I) Mode b (II - I) with with ω a = ω ωb = ω Frequency (=energy) difference increases with stronger coupling ω + ω = g + + a: I II - + b: I II d l ω = kd m Coupling can be steered by varying k or d (we ll vary d in the following)
3 Two Coupled Neurtrino-Pendulums d 1 γ k d l k l m m ν µ ν τ γ 1 γ 0 φ 1 0 φ Neutrinos: infinite lifetime damping γ i = 0
4 m m M ij φ = m g 1 special coupling d 1 = d =: d ω + ω / = ω / 1 E.vector 1 φ d with E.value 1 E.vector with E.value 1 ==> maximal mixing 1 φ = m g φ kd m = : ω, 1 d k kd kd Uncoupled (k=0) frequency: ω / ω + ω / ( d φ d φ ) k ω ( dφ φ φ d φ ) ( 1φ 1 φ ) ( ) ω ω + Δω 1 := 1 g 1 M ij φ 1 φ kd i d m j ω + = ω = = ω11 1 M ij : ωij ω φ1 φ general coupling d 1 d ω + 1 ω ==> non maximal mixing
5 flavor-basis eigenstates of flavor eigenstates of weak charge Two bases in Hilbert-space particles take part in weak interactions as flavor-eigenstates Examples: K 0 ( s u) or K 0 ( s u) ν e, ν µ, ν τ mass-basis eigenstates of mass well-defined lifetime Particles propagate through spacetime as mass-eigenstates ν ( t) = ν e Examples: K 0 L, K 0 S i( px Et) ν 1, ν, ν 3 e Γt The coupling of flavor eigenstates leads to eigenstates with different masses e.g. for linear combination of states: ν a = (ν τ + ν µ )/ with m a = m ν b = (ν τ ν µ )/ with m b = m + m

9 ν flavor-oscillations Each flavor (e.g. ν e ) is sum of mass eigenstates (ν 1, ν, ν 3 ) Each mass eigenstate with fixed p has a different phase frequency ω i exp(iω i t) = exp(ie i t) = exp(i( (p +m i )t) ~ exp(ipt+im i t/p+ ) The differences ω ij m i - m j =: m ij lead to flavor oscillations m ij determines the oscillation period θ ij determines the oscillation amplitude L ij =.48m = 480km E( MeV ) m m ij ( ev E( MeV ) ij ( mev ) )

26 Theoretical Problem Starting with ν e in sun via 4p 4 He + e + + ν e + 7 MeV transition to ν 3 = (ν τ ν µ )/ not possible, since ν e not part of ν 3 for θ 13 =0 oscillation only to (ν τ + ν µ )/ effective -state oscillation: P surv (ν e ν e ) >= 50% need additional effect for explaining solar neutrino measurements Michejew-Smirnow-Wolfenstein (MSW) effect: oscillation enhancement in matter Originally introduced already 1985 small mixing angle (SMA) solution (prejudice!) θ 1 MSW Effect 1
27 Landau-Zener Theory (193) Examples: Atoms: Spin states m>0, m<0 q:= Magnetic Field B Neutrinos: states ν e, (ν µ + ν τ ) q: = Electron density N e (r) in sun
28 MSW: Neutrinos in Matter ν e obtain additional diffractive potential term due to scattering with electrons (N e ) Without ν flavor-mixing (diagonal Hamiltonian υ 1 =0) With ν flavor-mixing (non-diagonal hamiltonian υ 1 0) ν e = ν (matter) ν (vacuum) avoided level crossing flavor composition of mass eigenstates changes as function of e-density N e If start as mass eigenstate: continuous change, no oscillation
29 Transitions at level crossing Example for Neutrinos: υ 1 : ~ sinθ 1 / L m (L m : oscillation length in matter) Adiabaticity (no transition at crossing) υ 1 de/dt = λλ NNNN tan θθ LL 1 1 mm de/dt: ~ cosθ 1 / λ Ne (λ Ne : scale of N e density change, ~ about 0.1x solar radius) i.e. flavor osc. fast wrt. variation of N e L m << λ Ne ~ 0.1 R and θ 1 not too small
30 Solution can be written in terms of a mixing angle θ m in matter, which depends on electron density N e, i.e. on position in sun = m m m m m m e v v v v 1 cos sin sin cos θ θ θ θ µ = µ θ θ θ θ v v v v e m m m m m m cos sin sin cos 1 For small vacuum mixing angle (1 ): For large vacuum mixing angle (3 ): Sun: surface resonance core
31 Modify θ m : Simulation of MSW: Variation of θ m Sun s center: ~ 90 o, i.e. ν = ν e resonance = crossing region: ~45 Sun s surface: ~35, i.e. ν = ( ν e + ν µ + ν τ ) / sin θ 1 = 0.85 H i m = m m + const resonance ν ν e m θ 1 smaller θ 1 larger 35 0 ν µ ν 1m Sun s surface ~ N e E
32 Evidence for MSW avoided level crossing Borexino 01 : No level crossing encountered (core of sun not dense enough) traverse level crossing

37 Modify θ 3 Non-maximal mixing of ν µ and ν τ ν 3 = ( ν µ + ν τ )/ no longer eigenmode Possible range for this model: 30 o < θ 3 < 60 o (naturally ~ maximal) θ 3 smaller θ 3 larger (special high school thesis J. Pausch 008)

41 Impact of θ 13 on reactor ν e ν e present in ν 3 (sin θ 13 ν e ν µ + ν τ ) ν e can now excite (ν τ ν µ ) mode, inducing fast ν τ ν µ modulation Reactor ν e ν τ ν µ disappearance Possible range for this model : -6 o < θ 13 < 6 o (naturally small!) θ 13 smaller θ 13 larger Reactor neutrinos ( MeV) sin θ 13 = 0.10 (θ 13 = 6 o ) e nu mu nu sin θ 13 = 0.0 (θ 13 = 1 o ) e nu mu nu
42 Impact of θ 13 on beam or atmospheric ν ν 3 (sinθ 13 ν e ν µ + ν τ ) atmospheric or beam ν µ ν e appearance slow directly via m 1 (weak coupling) fast modulation via ν τ ν µ with m 3 (strong coupling) θ 13 = 6 o sin θ 13 = 0.1 sin θ 13 =
43 Are neutrino pendulums a perfect model? Few features Need creative sign convention, leading to imperfection for understanding sequence of masses Else perfect! The END!
44 Problems Historical Prejudice: mixing angles should be small Problem #1: How to get large neutrino deficit w/ small mixing? After SNO+ KamLAND: mixing angles θ 1 and θ 3 large! ( Large Mixing Angle = LMA solution) Solar neutrinos effective -flavor mixing for θ 13 0 ν 3 = (ν τ ν µ )/ not part of ν e for θ 13 =0 min solar detection rate of ν e is 50%, even with max mixing Problem #: Observed rate of Homestake ~ 3%!
45 Neutrino propagation in matter MSW (Mikheyev, Smirnov, Wolfenstein) Effect Origin: v e and v μ,τ have different interaction with matter (v e can undergo CC and NC reaction, v μ,τ only NC!) ν e,µ,τ ν e,µ,τ In matter: + 4E G F N e Vacuum: i d dt ν e 1 m cosθ m sinθ ν e 1 ν = = : ν µ 4E m sinθ m cosθ ν µ 4E ν e ( V ) µ In matter there is an additional potential in the equation of motion for ve ve scattering (Flavor base)
