Linking solar bosonic dark matter halos and active neutrinos

Abstract

Our study investigates the complex interaction between active neutrinos and the ultralight bosonic dark matter halo surrounding the Sun. This halo extends over several solar radii due to the Sun's gravitational field, and we represent it as a coherent oscillating classical field configuration of bosonic dark matter particles that vary in time. Our investigation has revealed that, based on the available solar neutrino flux data, these novel models do not surpass the performance of the conventional neutrino flavour oscillation model. Furthermore, we discuss how next-generation solar neutrino detectors have the potential to provide evidence for the existence or absence of the ultralight dark matter halo.
