Resonant spin-flavor precession of sterile neutrinos
Resonant spin-flavor precession of sterile neutrinos
Abstract We analyze the impact of resonant conversions mediated by non-vanishing magnetic moments between active neutrinos and a heavy sterile neutrino on the supernova neutrino flux. We present the level-crossing scheme for such a scenario and derive the neutrino fluxes after conversion, paying particular attention to the order in which …
