Spin-dependent neutrino oscillations in torsion backgrounds: A quantum-field-theoretic analysis
Raoul Serao, Giuseppe De Maria, Simone Monda +2
We study neutrino mixing in a background with spacetime torsion within the quantum-field-theoretic formulation of flavor oscillations. Working in the Einstein--Cartan framework and…
Quantized Dirac Fields in torsionful gravity: cosmological implications and links with the dark universe
Antonio Capolupo, Sante Carloni, Luca Fabbri +3
We consider a classical field in square torsion theory as a source of torsion for a quantum fermion field in FLRW metric. In the framework of QFT, we obtain vacuum contributions to…
Dark matter induced by neutrino mixing and flavor vacuum condensate probed by neutrino capture on tritium
Antonio Capolupo, Simone Monda, Gabriele Pisacane +2
We show that experiments designed to capture low energy neutrinos, like PTOLEMY are sensitive to the specific neutrino model. In particular, they might show a signature of the cond…
Quantum Field Theory of neutrino mixing in spacetimes with torsion
Antonio Capolupo, Giuseppe De Maria, Simone Monda +2
In the framework of quantum field theory, we analyze the neutrino oscillations in the presence of a torsion background. We consider the Einstein-Cartan theory and we study the case…
