Dirac and Majorana neutrino scattering by cosmic torsion in spatial-flat FRW spacetime background

Abstract

The possibility of distinguishing Dirac and Majorana fermions by cosmic torsion in the spatial-flat FRW spacetime is discussed. The scattering amplitudes of two types of fermions deviate from each other by the vector part of torsion in non-minimal coupling case. The scattering of massive fermions by cosmic torsion leads to a shift of final state energy distribution. The difference between shift values of two types of fermions can be used to distinguish fermion types of neutrinos.
