Neutrino Lorentz Invariance Violation from Cosmic Fields

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2024-05-02 v3

Abstract

From a cosmological perspective, scalar fields are well-motivated dark matter and dark energy candidates. Several possibilities of neutrino couplings with a time-varying cosmic field have been investigated in the literature. In this work, we present a framework in which violations of Lorentz invariance (LIV) and CPTCPT symmetry in the neutrino sector could arise from an interaction among neutrinos with a time-varying scalar field. Furthermore, some cosmological and phenomenological aspects and constraints concerning this type of interaction are discussed. Potential violations of Lorentz and CPTCPT symmetries at present and future neutrino oscillation experiments such as IceCube and KM3NeT can probe this scenario.
