Neutrinos as Hot or Warm Dark Matter (Active + Sterile)
Neutrinos as Hot or Warm Dark Matter (Active + Sterile) Neutrinos as Hot or Warm Dark Matter (Active + Sterile)
(3+1) SchemeThe LSND + MiniBooNE anomalies & the reactor antineutrino anomalyalso hint at 1 or 2 sub-eV sterile ’s (Yasuda’s talk).They could be thermally excited in the early Universe via oscillationsor collisions with active ’s; they are now non-relativistic; and theirnumber density per species is expected to equal that of active ’s.Input: (Li, Xing, Luo 10)
OverdensitiesGravitational clustering: Those cosmic ’s with velocities smaller thanthe escape velocity of a given structure can be bound to it. So largerGC effects for heavier ’s around the Earth (Ringwald, Wong 04).The (3+2) scheme:Input:Overdensity
