Cosmology: Neutrino probes of dark energy
Gia Dvali1
Abstract
Dark energy drives the accelerating expansion of the Universe — but what is dark energy? Its influence on the properties of neutrinos might be detectable, and could reveal something of its mysterious nature.
The discovery that the rate of expansion of the Universe is accelerating has created a confusing situation in cosmology and particle physics. Although the standard cosmological model has been confirmed by data from the WMAP space telescope and by other telescope surveys of the large-scale structure of the Universe, nobody knows why the cosmic expansion is accelerating.
