摘要
For the first time the antineutrino spectrum formed as a result of neutron and tritium decays during the epoch of primordial nucleosynthesis is calculated. This spectrum is a nonthermal increase in addition to the standard cosmic neutrino background (C nu B) whose thermal spectrum was formed before the beginning of primordial nucleosynthesis. For energy larger than 10(-2) eV the calculated nonthermal antineutrino flux exceeds the C nu B spectrum and there are no other comparable sources of antineutrino in this range. The observations of these antineutrinos will allow us to look directly at the very early Universe and nonequilibrium processes taken place before, during, and some time after primordial nucleosynthesis.
