Three-flavor neutrino oscillations in a magnetic field

In this paper, we study Dirac and Majorana neutrino oscillations in a magnetic field in the three-flavor case. A theoretical framework developed in Popov and Studenikin 1 is extended to the case of three neutrino species, as well as to the Majorana neutrinos case. The closed expression for the Dirac neutrinos flavor and spin oscillations are given. Majorana neutrino oscillations are studied numerically. We show that the probabilities exhibit a complicated interplay of oscillation on magnetic [Formula: see text] and vacuum [Formula: see text] frequencies. It is also shown that neutrino oscillations in an interstellar magnetic field can modify neutrino fluxes observed in neutrino telescopes.

Abstract

In this paper, we study Dirac and Majorana neutrino oscillations in a magnetic field in the three-flavor case. A theoretical framework developed in Popov and Studenikin 1 is extended to the case of three neutrino species, as well as to the Majorana neutrinos case. The closed expression for the Dirac neutrinos flavor and spin oscillations are given. Majorana neutrino oscillations are studied numerically. We show that the probabilities exhibit a complicated interplay of oscillation on magnetic [Formula: see text] and vacuum [Formula: see text] frequencies. It is also shown that neutrino oscillations in an interstellar magnetic field can modify neutrino fluxes observed in neutrino telescopes.
