Does Neutrino Really Exist ?

TL;DR

This paper questions the traditional existence of neutrinos, proposing a new hypothesis based on byuons and suggesting that observed phenomena may be explained without neutrinos, supported by experimental observations of beta-decay variations.

Contribution

It introduces a novel hypothesis that physical space is formed from byuons, challenging the conventional neutrino existence theory and providing an alternative explanation for experimental results.

Findings

Neutrino existence hypothesis is not unquestionable.

A new information channel explains neutrino detection experiments.

Cyclic variations in beta-decay rates support the new hypothesis.

Abstract

An analysis of known experiments on direct and indirect detection of the electron-type neutrino and antineutrino has been made. The analysis based on a new hypothesis that the observed physical space is formed from a finite set of byuons, "one-dimensional vectorial objects". It is shown in the article that the hypothesis for existence of neutrinos advanced by Pauli on the basis of an analysis of the conservation laws, is not unquestionable since the fulfillment of these laws may be secured by the physical space itself (physical vacuum) being the lowest energy state of a discrete oscillating system originating in the course of byuon interaction. This effect is analogous to that of M\"ossbauer. The direct experiments on detecting neutrinos are explained from the existence of a new information channel due to the uncertainty interval for coordinate of the four-contact byuon interaction forming the interior geometry of elementary particles and their properties. Given are also the results of an experiment on observation of cyclic variations of the $\beta$-decay rate, which confirm the existence of said new information channel.
