How do we know about Atoms
• Brownian Motion - Einstein

J. Goodman – May 2003
How do we see into atoms
• Atomic Spectra– We see spectral lines– The colors and the spacing of these lines tell us about
the structure of the atoms
EE

J. Goodman – May 2003
What are fundamental particles?
• We keep finding smaller and smaller things
![Page 11: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
J. Goodman – May 2003
How do we see particles?
• Most particles have electric charge– Charged particles knock electrons out of atoms– As other electrons fall in the
atoms emit light
The light from your TV is The light from your TV is from electrons hitting the from electrons hitting the screenscreen
In a sense we are In a sense we are “seeing” electrons“seeing” electrons

J. Goodman – May 2003
The search for fundamental particles
• Proton and electron– These were known to make up the atom
• The neutron was discovered• Free neutrons were found to decay
– They decayed into protons and electrons– But it looked like something was missing
• In 1930 Pauli postulated a unseen neutral particle
• In 1933 Fermi named it the “neutrino” (little neutron)
![Page 13: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
J. Goodman – May 2003
Why do we care about neutrinos?
• Neutrinos – They only interact
weakly– If they have mass at all
– it is very small • They may be small, but there sure are a
lot of them!– 300 million per cubic meter left over from the
Big Bang– with even a small mass they could be most
of the mass in the Universe!
![Page 14: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
J. Goodman – May 2003
Facts about Neutrinos
• Neutrinos are only weakly interacting
• 40 billion neutrinos continuously hit every cm2 on earth from the Sun (24hrs/day)
• Interaction length is ~1 light-year of steel
• 1 out of 100 billion interact going through the Earth

Seeing Big Picture

J. Goodman – May 2003
Why do we think there is dark matter?
• Isn’t obvious that most of the matter in the Universe is in Stars?
Spiral GalaxySpiral Galaxy
![Page 17: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
J. Goodman – May 2003
Why do we think there is dark matter?
• In a gravitationally bound system out past most of the mass V ~ 1/r1/2
• We can look at the rotation curves of other galaxies– They should drop off
But they don’t!
![Page 18: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
J. Goodman – May 2003
Why do we think there is dark matter?
• There must be a large amount of unseen matter in the halo of galaxies– Maybe 20 times more than in the stars!– Our galaxy looks 30 kpc across but recent data
shows that it looks like it’s 200 kpc across
![Page 19: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
J. Goodman – May 2003
Measuring the energy in the Universe
• We can measure the mass of clusters of galaxies with gravitational lensing
• These measurements give mass ~0.3
• We also know (from the primordial deuterium abundance) that only a small fraction is nucleons

J. Goodman – May 2003
What is this ghostly matter?
• Could it be neutrinos?• How much neutrino mass would it take?
– Proton mass is 938 MeV– Electron mass is 511 KeV– Neutrino mass of 2eV would solve the galaxy
rotation problem – 20eV would close the Universe
• Theories say it can’t be all neutrinos– They have difficulty forming the kinds of structure
observed. The structures they create are too large and form too late in the history of the universe
![Page 21: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Does the neutrino have mass?

J. Goodman – May 2003
Detecting Neutrino Mass
• If neutrinos of one type transform to another type they must have mass:
• The rate at which they oscillate will tell us the mass difference between the neutrinos and their mixing

J. Goodman – May 2003
Neutrino Oscillations
• Could Neutrino Oscillations solve the solar neutrino problem?– Simple oscillations would require a cosmic conspiracy– The earth/sun distance would have to be just right to get rid of
Be neutrinos
• Another solution was proposed –
Resonant Matter Oscillations in the sun (MSW- Mikheev, Smirnov, Wolfenstein)
• Because electron neutrinos “feel” the effect of electrons in matter they acquire a larger effective mass– This is like an index of refraction
![Page 32: J. Goodman – May 2003 Ghosts in the Universe Jordan A. Goodman University of Maryland Fall 2003 The world we don’t see around us](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649f295503460f94c41bf4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Combining SK and SNO
• SNO measures e= (35 ± 3 )% ssm
• SK Measures es= (47 ± .5 ± 1.6)% ssm
• If Oscillation to active neutrinos:– SNO Measures just e
• This implies that ssm (~2/3 have oscillated)
– SK measures es =(e + ( /6.5)
• Assuming osc. SNO predicts that SK will see es ~ (35%+ 65%/6.5) ssm = 45% ± 3% ssm

J. Goodman – May 2003
• It looks like the Solar Neutrino problem has been solved!– All Data (except LSND) is now consistent
with the large angle MSW solution – e->
– We have ruled out SMA and Low solutions– Disfavor Sterile Neutrino solutions
• Neutrinos have mass!– This confirms the atmospheric neutrino results
– The Solar mass difference ~0.003eV
• Future Experiments – – MiniBoone – LSND effect

Neutrinos have mass
• Oscillations imply neutrinos have mass!
• We can estimate that neutrino mass is probably <0.2 eV – (we measure M2)
• Neutrinos can’t make up much of the dark matter –
• But they can be as massive as all the visible matter in the Universe!
• ~ ½% of the closure density

What does all the data say?
• Three pieces of data come together in one region
~ 0.73 m~ 0.27 (uncertainty ~0.04)
• Universe is expanding & won’t collapse
• Only ~1/6 of the dark matter is ordinary matter (atoms)
• A previously unknown and unseen “dark energy” pervades all of space and is causing it to expand and accelerate

What do we know about “Dark Energy”
• It emits no light• It acts like a large negative pressure
Px ~ - x
• It is approximately homogenous– At least it doesn’t cluster like matter
• Calculations of this pressure from first principles fail miserably – assuming it’s vacuum energy you predict a value of ~ 10120
• Bottom line – we know very little!

Conclusion
• total = 1.02 ± 0.02
– The Universe is flat!
• The Universe is : ~1/2% Stars
~1/2% Neutrinos
~27% Dark Matter (only 4% is ordinary matter)
~73% Dark Energy
• We can see ~1/2%• We can measure ~1/2%• We can see the effect of
~27% (but don’t know what most of it is)
• And we are pretty much clueless about the other 3/4 of the Universe
There is still a lot of Physics to learn!
