Coherent lunar effect on solar neutrino

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v3

Abstract

Coherent interaction of solar neutrino with the moon and its implication are investigated. We solve the Dirac equation with the moon potential and show that a phase shift of the neutrino wave function becomes almost one unit if the neutrino penetrates the moon. Spatial interference is generated for the neutrino wave packets during eclipse and possibility of observing interference effect that is similar to that of a double slit experiment is pointed out.
