Description
Both cosmology and astrophysics suggest the possible existence
of a sterile neutrino with mass of several Kev , which is a dark matter
candidate. The interaction of sterile neutrinos with matter in Kev
energy scale has been studied in the literature. In this paper we study
the interaction of sterile neutrinos with atoms and the role of
sterile neutrinos on ionization of atoms in Mev and Gev energy
scales. We also study the interaction of sterile neutrinos with
nuclei in the Mev and Gev energy scales. We obtain the relevant cross
sections for both these two interactions. Finally we compare our
results with the results of Kev energy range.
