Hot Dark Matter - Neutrinos

• Remember: Neutrinos experience the weak force only

  • To absorb a neutrino need column of water 1000 light years long

• Standard model: neutrino mass is zero

• Non-standard model: neutrino massive

• Try to measure through b-decay

  • If neutrino is massive then end point of spectrum changes (carries energy away)
