Transition Magnetic Moments and Collective Neutrino Oscillations:Three-Flavor Effects and Detectability
arXiv:1301.5637 · doi:10.1088/1475-7516/2013/04/018
Abstract
We demonstrate the non-negligible effect of transition magnetic moments on three-flavor collective oscillations of Majorana neutrinos in the core of type-II supernovae, within the single-angle approximation. We argue that data from a galactic supernova in conjunction with terrestrial experiments can potentially give us clues about the non-zero nature of neutrino transition magnetic moments if these are Majorana fermions, even if their values are as small as those predicted by the Standard Model augmented by nonzero neutrino Majorana masses.
