摘要
Coherent forward scattering processes by neutrino-scalar nonstandard interactions (SNSI) induce an effective neutrino mass. In the early Universe, a large neutrino effective mass restricts the production of neutrinos. The SNSI effect is modulated by two effective couplings; these account for the coupling between neutrinos and electrons or positrons, G(eff), and the neutrino self-interaction G(S). These parameters are directly related to the effective number of relativistic species, and nonzero values imply a smaller than expected N-eff. We employ big bang nucleosynthesis to constraint the SNSI effect. We find that G(eff) < 1.2 MeV-2 and G(S) <2.0 x 10(7) MeV-2 at 68% C.L. For a scalar mass in the range 10(-15 )eV less than or similar to m(phi) less than or similar to 10(-5) eV, our neutrino-scalar coupling constraint is more restrictive than any previous result.
