Аннотация:

Being generated, the relic neutrino background contained equal fractions of electron νe, muon νμ, and taon ντ neutrinos. We show that the gravitational field of our Galaxy and other nearby cosmic objects changes this composition near the Solar System, enriching it with the heaviest neutrino ν3. This mass state is almost free of the electron component (only ∼2% of νe) and contains more muon component than the tau one. As a result, the relic background becomes enriched with taon and particularly muon neutrinos. The electron relic neutrinos are the rarest for a terrestrial observer: instead of 1/3, the relic background may contain only ≳20% of them. Moreover, the speaker will inform about recent significant changes in the acceptance procedure of arxiv.org.
