Description

The primary objective of this work is to investigate the neutrino oscillation phenomenon by utilizing wave packets within the theoretical frameworks of quantum field theory. The standard scenario involving three light neutrinos mixing is known as coherence conditions. These conditions specify that the oscillation equation obtained from plane waves precisely corresponds to the wavelet equation identified in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. In exploring physics beyond the standard model, conventional calculations have used plane wave approximation to determine oscillation probabilities. We aim to enhance the framework by employing quantum mechanics and quantum field theory wave packets within these beyond-standard models. We aim to investigate whether specific experimental outcomes can be clarified by combining physics beyond the standard model and a thorough application of quantum field theory.
