Neutrino mixing as a source for cosmological constant
arXiv:hep-th/0412165 · doi:10.1590/S0103-97332005000300015
Abstract
We report on recent results showing that neutrino mixing may lead to a non-zero contribution to the cosmological constant. This contribution is of a completely different nature with respect to the usual one by a massive spinor field. We also study the problem of field mixing in Quantum Field Theory in curved space-time, for the case of a scalar field in the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric.
