Neutrino Velocity Anomalies: A Resolution without a Revolution
Dmitry V. Naumov, Vadim A. Naumov
TL;DR
This paper explains neutrino velocity anomalies observed in experiments through standard relativistic quantum theory, attributing the effect to the large effective transverse size of neutrino wavepackets, avoiding the need for revolutionary new physics.
Contribution
It offers a novel explanation for neutrino velocity anomalies within established quantum theory, emphasizing wavepacket size effects.
Findings
Neutrino velocity anomalies can be explained without new physics.
Large effective transverse size of neutrino wavepackets influences observed velocities.
Standard relativistic quantum theory suffices to account for experimental observations.
Abstract
We argue that the neutrino advance of time observed in MINOS and OPERA experiments can be explained in the framework of the standard relativistic quantum theory as a manifestation of the large effective transverse size of the eigenmass neutrino wavepackets.
