Big Bang Nucleosynthesis and Neutrino Cosmology
Evan B. Grohs, J. Richard Bond, Ryan J. Cooke +3
There exist a range of exciting scientific opportunities for Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) in the coming decade. BBN, a key particle astrophysics "tool" for decades, is poised to…
Lepton asymmetry, neutrino spectral distortions, and big bang nucleosynthesis
E. Grohs, George M. Fuller, C. T. Kishimoto +1
We calculate Boltzmann neutrino energy transport with self-consistently coupled nuclear reactions through the weak-decoupling-nucleosynthesis epoch in an early universe with signif…
Neutrino energy transport in weak decoupling and big bang nucleosynthesis
E. Grohs, G. M. Fuller, C. T. Kishimoto +2
We calculate the evolution of the early universe through the epochs of weak decoupling, weak freeze-out and big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) by simultaneously coupling a full strong,…
Probing neutrino physics with a self-consistent treatment of the weak decoupling, nucleosynthesis, and photon decoupling epochs
E. Grohs, G. M. Fuller, C. T. Kishimoto +1
We show that a self-consistent and coupled treatment of the weak decoupling, big bang nucleosynthesis, and photon decoupling epochs can be used to provide new insights and constrai…
Effect of neutrino rest mass on ionization equilibrium freeze-out
E. Grohs, G. M. Fuller, C. T. Kishimoto +1
We discuss how small neutrino rest masses can increase the expansion rate near the photon decoupling epoch in the early universe, causing an earlier, higher temperature freeze-out…
